Description
This collection of eight essays draws on a half-year of work, the second six months of 2009.
Neusner takes up three problems in the history of Religions, four essays on fundamental issues in form-history and the documentary hypothesis of the Rabbinic canon, and one theological essay.
The reason Neusner periodically collects and publishes essays and reviews is to give them a second life, after they have served as lectures or as summaries of monographs or as free-standing articles or as expositions of Judaism in collections of comparative religions.
This re-presentation serves a readership to whom the initial presentation in lectures or specialized journals or short-run monographs is inaccessible.
Some of the essays furthermore provide a precis, for colleagues in kindred fields, of fully worked out monographs, the comparative Midrash exercise, for example.
