| | Solomon Schechter |
 | | Schechter's most influential contribution to American Jewish life was his popularization of the concept of a "catholic (i.e., all-embracing as opposed to denominational) Israel." This was meant to provide a theoretical basis for the continuation of the Historical movement's search for Jewish unity. | | | According to Schechter revelation is manifest in tradition: the scriptures reveal history, and it is in the history of the Jewish people that the raw material for any Jewish theology has to be found. | | | Schechter spoke effortlessly of the permutations of Judaism because he had absorbed them from books and in life. |

| | Schechter also stressed what he called “Catholic Israel.” This means that the ultimate source of authority in Judaism is the Jewish people as a whole, in which a consensus emerges as to which aspects of the tradition are permanently binding and which are time conditioned. | | | There Schechter, together with a number of distinguished Jewish scholars, was responsible for training a new type of Conservative rabbi and for the establishment, together with sympathetic laymen, of the Conservative body of congregations, the United Synagogue of America. | | | Schechter’s somewhat unhelpful response is that all three movements, Reform, Orthodox and Conservative Judaism, have their role to play. |
