Description

Exegesis—interpretation and explanation of sacred texts—is the quintessence of rabbinic thought.

Fishbane discusses the nature and rationale of this interpretative process in a series of studies on ancient Jewish speculative theology.

Focusing on questions pondered in Midrash, he shows how religious ideas are generated or justified by exegesis.
