Making God's Word Work: A Guide to the Mishnah
ISBN: 9780826415578 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "The Mishnah is the crown jewel of Rabbinic Judaism in its formative age," so says the distinguished author of this book. Initiated in the aftermath of the Roman destruction of Jerusalem, and developed and amplified over the next five centuries, the Mishnah is the product of an age of calamity giving birth to a renewed search for recovery. As such, it speaks to every age, but to none more particularly and clearly than to our own which has witnessed the destruction wrought by the Shoah and the return to the land of Israel. Nevertheless, the Mishnah does not explicitly address the... "The Mishnah is the crown jewel of Rabbinic Judaism in its formative age," so says the distinguished author of this book.

The Mishnah: An Introduction
ISBN: 9780876688762 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 235 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In his brilliant introduction on the Mishnah, Jacob Neusner asks: How do you read a book that does not identify its author, tell you where it comes from, or explain why it was written - a book without a preface? And how do you identify a book with neither a beginning nor end, lacking table of contents and title? The answer is you just begin and let the author of the book lead you by paying attention to the information that the author does give, to the signals that the writer sets out. As Neusner goes on to explain, the Mishnah portrays the world in a special way, in a kind of code that makes...

Theology in Action: How the Rabbis of the Talmud Present Theology (Aggadah) in the Medium of the Law (Halakhah): An Anthology
ISBN: 9780761834885 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. While in contemporary culture we tend to resort to a single, if broadly defined, range of discourse for the results of systematic thought about public matters of the social order, this is not the case in Rabbinic Judaism. Judaism's authoritative documents set forth the entire structure of belief and system of behavior in two distinct modes of discourse, Halakhic and Aggadic, or broadly construed, statements of law and lore. Theology in Action shows how the Talmud of Babylonia (a.k.a., the Bavli) account of normative action sets forth in a dual discourse the single, coherent theology of...

The Theology of the Halakhah
ISBN: 9789004122918 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 452 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Neusner proves that the law of normative Judaism, the Halakhah, viewed whole, with its category-formations read in logical sequence, tells a coherent story. He demonstrates that details of the law contribute to making a single statement, one that, moreover, complements and corresponds with that of the Aggadah, the lore and scriptural exegesis of Judaism. The theology that animates the Halakhah records the result of the Rabbinic sages systematic, generalizing, universalizing reading of the narratives, exhortations, and laws of Scripture. From their comprehensive definition of those results in...

The Classics of Judaism: A Textbook and Reader
ISBN: 9780664254551 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In order to understand the faith of Judaism, according to Jacob Neusner, one must look at the very foundation of that faith: the Torah. To believers, this act of studying the Torah provides a direct and immediate link to the living God and forms the very basis of a faithful Jewish life. In this book, Jacob Neusner introduces the reader to selections from all the documents of the Torah, in addition to Scripture, that define the canon of Judaism in its formative age. The Classics of Judaism is, however, more than a collection of writings. It is also a primer for learning how to...

War and Peace in Rabbinic Judaism: A Documentary Account
ISBN: 9780761855989 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book surveys the treatment of war and peace in the canon of Rabbinic Judaism in late antiquity: to what does Judaism refer when it speaks of war and peace in the context of the Hebrew words "milhamah" (war) and "shalom" (peace)? But this study is not lexical. It is categorical. "War" represents a commanding, coherent category-formation, while "peace" covers a variety of circumstances and transactions. "War" is specifically a Halakhic category and "Peace" an Aggadic taxon. Do "war" and "peace" present us with a lexical or a categorical phenomenon? War forms a category-formation and peace...

Jerusalem and Athens: The Congruity of Talmudic and Classical Philosophy
ISBN: 9789004106987 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Talmud - the Mishnah, a philosophical law code, and the Gemara, a dialectical commentary upon the Mishnah - works by translating principal modes of Western philosophy and science into the analysis of the rules of rationality governing the rules of humble, everyday reality. Science, in particular the method of hierarchical classification characteristic of natural history, supplies the method of making connections and drawing conclusions to the Mishnah, the law-code that forms the foundation-document of the Talmud, as Neusner demonstrated in his Judaism as Philosophy. The Method and...

The Christian and Judaic Invention of History
ISBN: 9781555403218 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The twelve articles in this book (five of them by editor Jacob Neusner) explore the background developments and motivating forces for what Neusner calls the "re-invention" of history in the fourth and fifth centuries CE. The Christianization of the Roman empire under Constantine is seen as the impetus for reexamination within both Christianity and Judaism of their historical foundations. History then became a "mode of religious-theological discourse" for the respective communities of faith. The other contributors to the volume are: Burton Mack, Glenn Chestnut, Arnaldo Momigliano, Nahum...

Religion, Science, and Magic: In Concert and in Conflict
ISBN: 9780195079111 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Every culture makes the distinction between "true religion" and magic, regarding one action and its result as "miraculous," while rejecting another as the work of the devil. Surveying such topics as Babylonian witchcraft, Jesus the magician, magic in Hasidism and Kabbalah, and magic in Anglo-Saxon England, these ten essays provide a rigorous examination of the history of this distinction in Christianity and Judaism. Written by such distinguished scholars as Jacob Neusner, Hans Penner, Howard Kee, Tzvi Abusch, Susan R. Garrett, and Moshe Idel, the essays explore a broad range of topics,...

The Golden Rule: Analytical Perspectives
ISBN: 9780761841012 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Golden Rule--'do to others as you would have them do to you', 'what is hateful to you to your fellow don't do', to take the two most familiar formulations--defines a meeting place for many fields of learning. There the study of comparative religion, philosophy and ethics, anthropology and sociology, and the whole range of cross-cultural studies carried on in the social sciences and the humanities intersect. That hardly presents a surprise, since the Golden Rule finds a place in most religions and is universally acknowledged to form a part of the shared heritage of human wisdom. But if it...
