Joseph David Wijnkoop (Amsterdam, 14 August 1842 - Amsterdam, 1 October 1910) was a Dutch rabbi and scholar in Jewish studies. He was a pupil of the rabbi Jacob Content. Among the Jews of Amsterdam, he was known and respected for his liberal and practical ideas. ==Life== Wijnkoop was born in a family of small retailers. He studied at the Dutch Israelite Seminary, a religious school related to the Ashkenazi Jews. He also studied Classical language at the University of Amsterdam. Wijnkoop was the first trainee rabbi who did both academical courses, before is became mandatory. In 1870, he finished his studies at the Jewish Seminary and was rewarded the "Moré-diploma", the highest degree available.〔 (Joseph David Wijnkoop )〕 Later in 1870 he was appointed rabbi at the Nederlands-Israëlietische Hoofdsynagoge, the Ashkenazi-Jewish community of Amsterdam. He was the successor of rabbi Joseph Tsewie Hirsch. From 1901, he was also lecturer in the New-Hebrew at the University of Amsterdam.〔 (Joseph David Wijnkoop )〕 In 1902, Wijnkoop was also appointed as Chief Rabbi of Amersfoort.〔 (Plechtige installatie van den Weleerwaarden Zeer Geleerden Heer J.D. Wijnkoop )〕 He resigned this post in 1904, because it was incompatible with his work as rabbi in Amsterdam. Due to his very bad relationship with the chief rabbi of Amsterdam Joseph Hirsch Dünner, it is likely that he forced Wijnkoop out of this post.〔 (Joseph David Wijnkoop )〕 Another position he held was that of board member of the Etz Chaim of Beth Hamidrasch.〔 (Joseph David Wijnkoop )〕 In 1902, Wijnkoop was named as Knight in the Order of Orange-Nassau. Joseph Wijnkoop died in 1910, aged 68. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joseph Wijnkoop」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
