Book Synopsis Mekhilta De-Rabbi Shimon Bar Yo (Edward E. Elson Classic) by : W. David Nelson
Download or read book Mekhilta De-Rabbi Shimon Bar Yo (Edward E. Elson Classic) written by W. David Nelson and published by Jewish Publication Society. This book was released on 2006-10-09 with total page 811 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mekhilta de-Rabbi Shimon bar Yohai is a collection of classical midrashic interpretation of the biblical Book of Exodus. Lost for centuries, the text was reconstructed and recovered in the 19th and 20th centuries by both German and Israeli scholars from a variety of source materials, including medieval manuscripts of the text and midrashic anthologies. As one of the first collections of rabbinic biblical interpretation, the Mekhilta de-Rabbi Shimon bar Yohai is an indispensable source for understanding the history, beliefs, and practices of the earliest rabbis. This edition, translated and explicated for the first time in English by W. David Nelson, is The Jewish Publication Society's latest contribution to making ancient Jewish literature accessible to modern readers. A critical introduction provides the reader with a firm grounding in the historical setting of the text, as well as its source material, reconstruction, subject matter, and significance for understanding the history of Judaism. Set in a modern, readable typeface, the Hebrew text faces the English translation with the author's annotation beneath. Indexes include scriptural verse citations and rabbinic sages named in the text.

Book Synopsis The Origins of Midrash: From Teaching to Text by : Paul D. Mandel
Download or read book The Origins of Midrash: From Teaching to Text written by Paul D. Mandel and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-05-22 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Origins of Midrash: From Teaching to Text, Paul Mandel presents a comprehensive study of the words darash and midrash from the Bible until the early rabbinic periods (3rd century CE). In contrast to current understandings in which the words are identified with modes of analysis of the biblical text, Mandel claims that they refer to instruction in law and not to an interpretation of text. Mandel traces the use of these words as they are associated with the scribe (sofer), the doresh ha-torah in the Dead Sea scrolls, the “exegetes of the laws” in the writings of Josephus and the rabbinic “sage” (ḥakham), showing the development of the uses of midrash as a form of instruction throughout these periods.

Book Synopsis The Meshalim in the Mekhiltot by : Lieve M. Teugels
Download or read book The Meshalim in the Mekhiltot written by Lieve M. Teugels and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of rabbinic parables (meshalim) in the two Mekhiltot, the tannaitic Midrashim to the book of Exodus (3rd century CE), has a double scholarly purpose. It offers a critical synoptic presentation and study of the textual witnesses of the parables, and a commentary on their meaning and function in their literary and historical context. Moreover, a new English translation of every parable will make the edition a useful tool for interested readers with less knowledge of Hebrew, or those merely looking for a quick reference. This edition, which intends to be the first in a series of editions of parables in all the tannaitic works, is an indispensable tool not only for scholars of Jewish texts, but also for students of the New Testament and early Christian literature, historians of religion in late Antiquity, and those interested in similar literary genres, such as fables.
Book Synopsis The Dangerous Duty of Rebuke: Leviticus 19:17 in Early Jewish and Christian Interpretation by : Matthew S. Goldstone
Download or read book The Dangerous Duty of Rebuke: Leviticus 19:17 in Early Jewish and Christian Interpretation written by Matthew S. Goldstone and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Dangerous Duty of Rebuke Matthew Goldstone explores the ways in which religious leaders within early Jewish and Christian communities conceived of the obligation to rebuke their fellows based upon the biblical verse: “Rebuke your fellow but do not incur sin” (Leviticus 19:17). Analyzing texts from the Bible through the Talmud and late Midrashim as well as early Christian monastic writings, he exposes a shift from asking how to rebuke in the Second Temple and early Christian period, to whether one can rebuke in early rabbinic texts, to whether one should rebuke in later rabbinic and monastic sources. Mapping these observations onto shifting sociological concerns, this work offers a new perspective on the nature of interpersonal responsibility in antiquity.

Download or read book My Perfect One written by Jonathan Kaplan and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2015 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interpretations of 'Song of Songs' in the tannaitic midrashim, the first rabbinic scriptural commentaries, employ a form of allegory known as figural interpretation or typology in order to correlate this work to Israel's ideal national narrative represented by events such as the crossing of the sea and the giving of the Torah. This approach to interpreting 'Song of Songs' helped shape rabbinic conceptions of the character and practice of model Israel as well as of an idealised vision of their beloved, God.
Download or read book The Jewish Jesus written by Peter Schäfer and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-23 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the rise of Christianity profoundly influenced the development of Judaism in late antiquity In late antiquity, as Christianity emerged from Judaism, it was not only the new religion that was being influenced by the old. The rise and revolutionary challenge of Christianity also had a profound influence on rabbinic Judaism, which was itself just emerging and, like Christianity, trying to shape its own identity. In The Jewish Jesus, Peter Schäfer reveals the crucial ways in which various Jewish heresies, including Christianity, affected the development of rabbinic Judaism. He even shows that some of the ideas that the rabbis appropriated from Christianity were actually reappropriated Jewish ideas. The result is a demonstration of the deep mutual influence between the sister religions, one that calls into question hard and fast distinctions between orthodoxy and heresy, and even Judaism and Christianity, during the first centuries CE.
Book Synopsis Sanctity of Time and Space in Tradition and Modernity by : Alberdina Houtman
Download or read book Sanctity of Time and Space in Tradition and Modernity written by Alberdina Houtman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time and space can take on a sacred nature in both Judaism and Christianity accompanied by a permanent critical attitude towards the sacred. Conceptions of sacredness imply a conception of community and of society at large. This study investigates the different attitudes toward sacred time and space from an interdisciplinary perspective, ranging from the Biblical period through Qumran, Patristics, Rabbinics, archaeology and theology to modern and even to post-modern rituals. This approach offers a fascinating insight into both the common heritage of Judaism and Christianity and their mutual differences.
