The Mishnah: A New Translation
ISBN: 9780300050226 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 1207 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The eminent Judaica scholar Jacob Neusner provides here the first form-analytical translation of the Mishnah. This path-breaking edition provides as close to a literal translation as possible, following the syntax of Mishnaic Hebrew in its highly formalized and syntactically patterned language. Demonstrating that the Mishnah is a work of careful and formal poetry and prose, Neusner not only analyzes the repeated construction but also divides the thoughts on the printed page so that the patterned language and the poetry comprised in those patterns emerge visually.

Comparative Midrash: Sifré to Numbers and Sifré Zutta to Numbers, Volume 1
ISBN: 9780761845218 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The documentary hypothesis of the Rabbinic canon of late antiquity maintains that complete documents form the smallest whole building blocks of the Rabbinic system.

Then, through a side by side chart, it compares each component of the two documents' treatment of the same extended segment of Scripture, Numbers 19. Whole documents are to be described and analyzed through a process of systematic description,...

Three Questions of Formative Judaism: History, Literature, and Religion
ISBN: 9780391041776 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The academic study of Judaism requires a systematic inquiry into the history, literature, and religion--and eventually the theology--as revealed in the historical documents themselves. Under this premise, Three Questions of Formative Judaism encounters the canonical writings of Judaism in the context of their creation at a certain time and place. How something is said thus becomes as important as what is said. Bringing nearly fifty years of research to bear on these fundamental questions, Jacob Neusner challenges his readers to face the difficult, often unasked or neglected questions...

ISBN: 9780687351930 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Rabbinic literature is a complex and interwoven body of texts whose importance is extensive: it is, of course, central to studying Judaism; its texts are valuable for broad religious study and are crucial for understanding the background of early Christianity; and the history of biblical interpretation inevitably involves this quite immense and varied set of writings. There is no scholar more highly regarded as an authority on Rabbinic literature and Judaism than Jacob Neusner. And there is no educator better suited to explaining it in clear and concise terms, laying out the list of...
