Fuchs continued his studies at the Lehranstalt für die Wissenschaft des Judentums (Institute for the Study of Judaism) . In 1907 Fuchs became the rabbi of Chemnitz, a position he would hold until 1938. He also headed the Zentralstelle für jüdische Wohlfahrtspflege (Central Agency for Jewish Welfare) in Chemnitz. Fuchs was a liberal rabbi, and influenced by theologians like Abraham Geiger.

A prolific writer, Fuchs's articles on various aspects of Judaism and Jewish life often appeared in various newspapers.

KERIAT HA-TORAH: LE-VAER HORAAT SHORESH KARA, VE-EKH SHE-HISHTAMSHU BO HAZAL BA-SHAS ... NOSAF MIKHTAV BEER REHOVOT
Period boards. 8vo, 44 pages, 17 cm. In Hebrew. Title translates to: The Reading of the Torah: For Explaining the Root of Reading and Its Use...with Beer Rehovot Letter. Explanation of the root of Kara and how it was used by the sages in the Talmud. The title page states that it will explain their intent in a clear language and explain the subject of yesh aim le-Mikra and aim le-Messorah, that is, whether a verse is to be understood as it is written or as it is read. It also addresses other issues in the Talmud built upon the structure of the Hebrew language. There are approbations from Rabbi Akiva Eger and from Rabbi Simha Wiel. An apologia from the author follows, and then the text, in a single column in rabbinic type. It begins with introductory material and continues, in the order of issues in the Talmud. After the discourses based on the Talmud is a strong refutation (33a-44b) on modifications to the accepted liturgy in the book Iggeret beit Tefillah by Isaac Satanof (1732-1804) . The latter was a Haskalah writer, who, in his book, classified every word that he explained as either "Hebrew" or "talmudic, " and proceeded to clarify this question at other opportunities as well. Satanof attempted to break out of the strict framework of biblical style, although he himself was very adept in the biblical style called melizah. Hence he demanded that new words be coined; in Iggeret Beit Tefillah he complains that the vocabulary of biblical Hebrew had not preserved its great lexical range. Rabbi Coeslin was also the author of Mesilol bedikduk Loshon ha-Kodesh. SUBJECTS: Masorah. Hebrew language -- Lexicography. Hebrew language -- Lexicography. Masorah. OCLC lists 9 copies worldwide. Ex-library with usual markings. Foxing to pages. Otherwise Great Condition. (HEB-48-51)

1st Separate Edition. 19th Century Boards with original paper wrappers bound inside. 8vo. 33 pages ; 21 cm. Reprinted from the Asiatic Journal. This is the first published monograph by Louis Loewe, the Jewish Silesian linguist who made major contributions to the study of Hieroglyphics and who worked as Sir Moses Montefiores secretary. Sir Moses Montefiore in his will named Loewe one of his executors, and directed that he should be entrusted with all his diaries and other private papers to enable him to undertake the task of writing a biography of Lady Montefiore. This became a biography of Sir Moses also. It was completed in June 1888, and published in 1890 as Diaries of Sir Moses and Lady Montefiore. (Wikipedia, 2017) This book includes amazing type-set illustrations of Egyptian hieroglyphics which Loewe translates into English, Greek, and Hebrew. OCLC lists 8 copies worldwide, and no copies in the United States. Ex-library with Institutional Stamp. Inscribed by the author on the front wrapper. Boards are worn. Some edgewear, with one corner folded. A few damp stains. Overall in good condition. (BR-11-52)
