Kurzfassung:
Hebrew was used in Germany not only by Hebrew writers and scholars. In the 19th-early 20th centuries, Protestant missionaries (e.g. Franz Delitzsch and Hermann Strack), whose stance toward Jews bordered on antisemitism, used their knowledge of Hebrew in fighting Judaism. Under Nazi rule, some Hebrew scholars, like Karl Georg Kuhn, Fritz Arlt, and Johannes Pohl, became servants of the regime in its campaign against the Jews, e.g. by joining Nazi "research" institutes. The Nazi professional murderer Eichmann studied Hebrew and Yiddish for the sake of his career.
