Reading Scripture with the Rabbis: The Five Books of Moses
ISBN: 9780761835943 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This anthology illustrates how Judaism's classical rabbis of the first seven centuries of the Common Era read the ancient Israelite scriptures. It presents, in particular, a selection of writings that show what happens to the five books of Moses at the hands of the Rabbinical sages of the formative age of Judaism. Each Midrash-compilation takes up a book of Scripture and systematically expounds the message that the Rabbis derive from that particular book. No statement by the rabbis of the meaning of a biblical book emerges as a mere paraphrase of the plain sense of Scripture itself. The...

Theological and Philosophical Premises of Judaism
ISBN: 9781934843543 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Classical Judaism imagined the situation of the people of Israel to be unique among the nations of the earth in three aspects. The nations lived in unclean lands, contaminated by corpses and redolent of death. They themselves were destined to die without hope of renewed life after the grave. They were prisoners of secular time, subject to the movement and laws of history in its inexorable logic. Heaven did not pay attention to what they did and did not care about their conduct, so long as they observed the basic decencies mandated by the commandments that applied to the heirs of Noah, seven...

Is Scripture the Origin of the Halakhah?
ISBN: 9780761831174 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Halakhah constitutes a coherent construction comprised by category-formations defined by topics purposively amplified. These category-formations everywhere pursue a cogent analytical program, addressing diverse subjects, treated systematically, a single set of questions of definition and analysis. Is Scripture the origin of the Halakhic system, which defines the norms of Judaism? At stake is not the starting point of discrete bits of legal data. At issue is the origin of the comprehensive structure comprised by the Halakhic category-formations, by these topics and no others. Scripture...

In this book Jacob Neusner conducts a close textual analysis of Sifra, a commentary on the book of Leviticus.

Persia and Rome in Classical Judaism
ISBN: 9780761841029 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Persia and Rome in Classical Judaism examines the representation of Rome and Persia (Iran) in the successive groups of documents that comprise the Rabbinic canon of late antiquity. Neusner considers how diverse documents of Rabbinic Judaism represent Rome and Iran and presents the way in which documentary differentiation affords perspective on the history of Judaism. Axial events of the age--the destruction of the second Temple in 70 and the defeat of the effort to restore it in 135, the transformation of the Roman Empire into a Christian state in the fourth century, the failure to rebuild...

The Mishnah: Social Perspectives
ISBN: 9789004114913 / Angielski / Skórzana / 1999 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Mishnah - the second-century law code that lays the foundation, after Scripture, of normative Judaism - encompasses all subjects that pertain to the life of the Jewish nation and as such provides a systematic basis for Israel's social order and world view. Any social program has its own politics, economics, and philosophy which together define a given social entity rather than any other. And any system defining the structure of a society strives to establish a set of harmonised and coherent fundamental principles, viewpoints and attitudes in treating the components of its theory of the...

ISBN: 9780391041608 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Understanding the religious perspectives of the Mishnah starts with asking three questions. First, what is the relationship of the Mishnah to Scripture, or "oral torah" to "written torah," for understanding the religion of Judaism? Second, what is the relationship between religious ideas and the world in which those ideas emerged? Third, what is the formal religious significance of the language of the Mishnah? These questions are posed with regard to a Judaism that existed from just prior to the destruction of the Temple in 70 C.E. until around 200 C.E. and assumes as well the groundwork of...

It is a modern religion, too, still transforming the lives of many people. In this book, Jacob Neusner brings together these two aspects of the study of Judaism.

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.
