What is Emden-Eibeschuetz Controversy Insights about?

The original notarized copy of five amulets written by Rabbi Jonathan Eibeschuetz during his tenure as Chief Rabbi of Metz has been rediscovered. The four-page document from 1751 details the notarization of the amulets by officials of the Jewish community of Metz and later renotarization under French civil authorities. Analysis of the texts in the rediscovered document provides new perspectives on the famous controversy between Eibeschuetz and Rabbi Jacob Emden over the meaning of the amulets.
