Description:
97 - 127 Seiten. Die Monatsschrift "Esra" erstrebte, wie es in einer Ankündigung heißt, "die Verknüpfung des jüdischen Intellektuellen mit der Entwicklung und mit dem Geschehen seines Volkes". "Esra" verstand sich als Forum zur kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit den Leistungen des offiziellen Zionismus.

Die Zeitschrift stand der 'Jüdischen Renaissance' nahe und zielte darauf, vor allem den assimilierten Kreisen des Westjudentums genuin jüdische, vornehmlich osteuropäische Kulturtraditionen zu vermitteln.
