The short answer would be that the development of Conservative Judaism in Germany was the direct precursor of the Jewish Theological Seminary, even though a pivotal founder was a Sephardic Jew by the name of Sabato Morais. Conservative Judaism, like Reform Judaism in Germany, sought to emulate aspects of gentile service in Germany while still remaining true to Jewish tradition. Look up the "Wissenschaft des Judentums" (Science of Judaism), as expounded by Prof. David N. Myers.

Where is the best seminary in the world?

There are as many good seminaries as there are people called to go to seminary. Each is different, uniquely designed to prepare people to serve (just as each member of the body of Christ is uniquely gifted to serve). Some questions to consider: *What is your denomination, and does that matter to you? *What is required by your denomination for ordination, if that's your goal? *What is your purpose for attending seminary (keeping in mind, of course, that God has good ways of changing your mind!)? For example, are you planning to go into congregational ministry, research/academia, or some other type of work? *Where do you fall on the conservative/liberal spectrum with regard to your theology? *Are you a woman? The list of questions could go on and on, but I list some to show that the process of choosing a seminary is very individual. Choosing a seminary has very little in common with choosing, say, an MBA program. One must find out whether a seminary will at once fit with what you believe and also challenge you to stretch your understanding of God and God's people. It should have faculty members that can mentor you in your walk. It should have facilities and resources that are accessible and useful to you. It should have programs that fit your interests and passions. If you are married or have other important relationships in your life, it should include those people in the seminary community. The best way to find the right seminary for you is to talk to folks you respect who have been to seminary and ask them why they chose their school. Also, campus visits are imperative! This place will be your physical and spiritual home for a good many years, so you need to experience it firsthand. Blessings to all who need this information, and blessings to all in your life who will support your endeavors!
