Description
Tracing the origins of Jewish names is no simple task but Benzion Kaganoff tackles it with remarkable skill. From Aaron (and its variations Agronsky, Arkin, and Orlik) to Zwirn (German for “thread”), he uncovers the biblical, occupational, and geographic roots behind nearly 4,000 names. Along the way, Kaganoff reveals how centuries of adaptation and change have shaped these names, making his achievement in mapping their histories all the more impressive.
