Sigmund Freud's complex relationship with Judaism has long puzzled scholars seeking to understand the religious and cultural roots of psychoanalysis. Two groundbreaking works - Emanuel Rice's "Freud and Moses: The Long Journey Home" and Yosef Hayim Yerushalmi's "Freud's Moses: Judaism Terminable and Interminable" - overturn conventional wisdom by revealing psychoanalysis as an essentially Jewish science emerging from a deeply Jewish milieu. Through hermeneutic analysis of Freudian writings, Rice uncovers evidence that Freud's parents maintained Orthodox practices, documenting a traditionally Jewish upbringing far more observant than previously recognized. Yerushalmi's interpretation of "Moses and Monotheism" identifies the text as Freud's "deferred obedience" to his father's Hebrew dedication in the Philippson Bible, positioning psychoanalysis as a secularized extension of Judaism. Biblical narratives from Freud's early Hebrew education, particularly stories of familial dysfunction and psychosexual themes, provided unconscious foundations for his later psychoanalytic discoveries. This revisionist scholarship establishes new frameworks for understanding the Jewish dimensions of psychoanalytic theory and practice, with significant implications for contemporary clinical training and therapeutic relationships involving Jewish identity issues.
