Friedrich Weinreb

xxx/ellauri123.html on line 370: Friedrich Weinreb (ook Fryderyk, Frederik of Freek Weinreb; Lemberg, het huidige Lviv, 18 november 1910 – Zürich, 19 oktober 1988) was een joods-chassidische verteller, schrijver en econoom. Hij was het onderwerp van de zogenoemde Weinreb-affaire rond zijn activiteiten als duits collaborateur en vermeend jodenhelper tijdens de tweede wereldoorlog.
xxx/ellauri123.html on line 372: Weinreb grew up in Scheveningen, Netherlands, to which his family had moved in 1916, and became notorious for selling a fictitious escape route for Jews from the occupied Netherlands in the Second World War. When his scheme fell apart in 1944, he left his home in Scheveningen and went into hiding in Ede. He was imprisoned for 3½ years after the war for fraud as well as collaboration with the German occupier. In his memoirs, published in 1969 he maintained that his plans were to give Jews hope for survival and that he had assumed that the liberation of the Netherlands would take place before his customers were deported. The debate about his guilt or innocence—called the “Weinreb affair”—was very heated in the Netherlands in the 1970s, involving noted writers like Renate Rubinstein and Willem Frederik Hermans. In an attempt to end this debate, the government asked the Rijksinstituut Oorlogsdocumentatie (Netherlands institute for war documentation) to investigate the matter. in 1976 the institute issued a report (of which a part already was leaked to the press in 1973), which determined that his memoirs were "a collection of lies and fantasies," and that his collaboration had caused 70 deaths. Although his activities did contribute to some Jews' survival, most Jews who fell for Weinreb's swindle were deported and killed.

In a Dutch biography by Regina Grüter published in 1997, Een fantast schrijft geschiedenis, Weinreb was depicted as a sufferer from pseudologia fantastica. se oli mytomaani toisin sanoen!
xxx/ellauri123.html on line 383: Olen pitänyt Kiteellä ja Helsingissä muutamia vuosia Raamattukursseja nimeltään Juutalainen perimätieto ja Raamattu. Tämän muinaisjuutalaisuuden perimätiedon on Friedrich Weinreb tuonut ensimmäisen kerran nykymaailman tietoon nykykielellä, eli hollannin ja saksan kielellä. Raamatun lukemiseen ja ymmärtämiseen on juutalainen perimätieto osoittautunut hyvin hyödylliseksi ja se paljastaa Raamatun sanoman sisäisen rakenteen ja näin Sanan voima ja syvempi merkitys korostuvat.

xxx/ellauri123.html on line 386: Hasidismi on säilyttänyt tiedot juutalaisesta perimätiedosta juuri myös lukemattomien tarinoiden ja legendojen avulla. Ja Weinrebilla oli suuri ilo kertoa niitä. Juutalaisen perimätiedon ohella myös hasidien tarinat auttavat meitä ymmärtämään ja rakastamaan Raamattua paremmin.
