Bernhard Templer (Hebrew: ר׳ דב בריש ב״ר מרדכי טמפלר, romanized: Dov Berish ben Mordekhai Templer;[1] May 1, 1865 – August 22, 1935) was a Austro-Galician Jewish theologian.
Templer was born in Briegel, Galicia (now Brzesko, Poland) to Rabbi Marcus Templer.
[2] At the age of fifteen he began contributing articles to various Hebrew periodicals, and two years later he published his Dover tov (Lemberg, 1882), novellæ and commentaries on obscure Talmudic passages.
He was educated at the University of Vienna, the Vienna Bet ha-Midrash, and at the Hochschule für die Wissenschaft des Judentums in Berlin, where he received rabbinical ordination at the age of 18.
He served as a military rabbi during World War I.
