Summary/Abstract: This text was inspired by Michał Borwicz's critical analysis written in the 1950s by a historian and writer, which exposed the purported document from the Warsaw ghetto: Josl Rakower Addresses God. Based on a recent “literary investigation” by a German journalist Paul Badde, the authors present the complex history of this article. They also add a few theoretical and theological reflections, borne out of their work on the Polish translation “Josl Rakower”.
