He first studied in the Yeshiva at Baden and then at the University of Bern, where he obtained degrees in Political Science and Law (Rer.Pol. and Dr Jur.). After the war, Ehrman went to England and obtained the Rabbinical semicha from Jews’ College, London, in 1947. Moving to Israel, he became a member of the Israeli Bar. Ehrman served as Rabbi in the communities of Nairobi, Kenya and Bristol, England in the 1950’s and in Streatham, London and in Watford in the 1970’s. In between, he lived in Israel with his family, working first for the Ministry of Religious Affairs, then as a Research Fellow at the Institute for Research in Jewish Law, indexing the responsa of the Rosh; from 1965, he worked on his edition of the Talmud El Am. He also contributed numerous articles to the Encyclopedia Judaica. Rabbi Dr Ehrman died in England in 1976.
