Samuel Judah Löb ben David Kauders ( Yiddish: שמואל יהודה ליב בן דוד קוידער, romanized: Shemuʼel Yehuda Leyb ben Daṿid Ḳoyder; 1766 – 6 May 1838) was a Bohemian rabbi.
Kauders was born in Bechyne, Bohemia, in 1766, the son of David Kauders. [1] At the age of 10, he went to study under Michael Bacharach in Prague, and at the age of 13 became a student of Elazar Fleckeles and a friend of Bezalel Ronsburg. [2] After completing his studies, he devoted his time to Talmudics without holding a rabbinical position.
In 1817, he was called to Kaladei as district rabbi of Tabor and Budweis. Between 1824 and 1827 he was also responsible for the Prachin district. [2] In 1834 Kauders succeeded Samuel Landau as Oberjurist (acting chief rabbi) of Prague, a position which he held until his death. [3]
While a Talmudist of the old school and rigorously Orthodox, he was tolerant in his views and favored secular education. [3]
