David Mevorach Seidenberg

David Mevorach Seidenberg is an American rabbi and scholar with a deep focus on Jewish thought, spirituality, and ecology. He is the creator of neohasid.org, a website dedicated to deepening the connections between Hasidism, Kabbalah, and ecology. Seidenberg earned his PhD from the Jewish Theological Seminary and his rabbinic ordination from the Aleph Ordination Program.

His work primarily explores the intersection of theology and the natural world, drawing heavily on Kabbalistic and Hasidic sources to articulate a vision of the environment through Jewish texts. Seidenberg's scholarship is particularly noted for its emphasis on the ethical and spiritual dimensions of environmentalism, arguing for an intrinsic link between Jewish spiritual practice and environmental stewardship.

In addition to 'Kabbalah and Ecology: God's Image in the More-Than-Human World,' Seidenberg has contributed to numerous publications and academic discussions on religion and ecology. His writings and teachings aim to foster a deeper understanding of the divine in nature and to promote a more sustainable interaction with the Earth, based on Jewish mystical teachings.
