Subject: Heidegger Speaks


It is a staple in Talmudic Discourse, when the dialectic has wended 
its way to a point where understanding is at a premium and emotions 
themselves are being mistaken for thought, someone brings in a 
Biblical verse whose words, when properly interpreted, will lead the 
rabbis back to a reasoning line of thought by turning the focus to a 
relevant and significant moment of factical experience, requiring 
their attention.  Sometimes one can recognize in the situation to 
which the verse seems to apply some semblence of the very situation 
in which the rabbis find themselves, as they speak (so to speak).

The verse I would like to ask about is SuZ #26 (p.123 in the German):

"As Being-with, Dasein 'is' essentially for the sake of others." (M & R)

Als mitsein  'ist' daher das Dasein wesenhaft umwillen Anderer.

The heading of this section is " The Dasein-with of Others and 
Everyday Being-with."

This juxtaposition seems to suggest a profound interdependence in 
Dasein's active life with others,
especially when philosophizing.

But I say too much.  I mean to leave it as a question, relevant to 
the discussion .
