Dr. Orr Scharf serves as a lecturer at the Cultural Studies M.A. Program at the University of Haifa. His academic work focuses on Jewish thought, particularly the philosophical contributions of Franz Rosenzweig and Martin Buber to biblical translation and interfaith dialogue.
Dr. Scharf's research centers on German-Jewish philosophy and Bible translation theory. His work examines how Rosenzweig and Buber's translation approaches create space for interfaith understanding while maintaining theological integrity. He explores the non-territorial dimension of biblical concepts, particularly regarding the relationship between text, land, and identity in Jewish thought.
His publications demonstrate a consistent focus on the intersection of translation theory, Jewish-Christian relations, and modern philosophical interpretations of scripture. The articles reveal a scholar deeply engaged with how language shapes religious understanding across cultural boundaries.
