Abstract

In the Rabbis' Garden is a contemporary reflection on the midrashic comments to the story of Adam and Eve. It interprets --and reacts to-- midrash tat touches on the basic aspects of the human condition: guilt, virtue, responsibility, God, death, and sexuality, all rooted in the primal experience of Eden.

Abstract

This book is a comparative study in the hermeneutics of the ancient interpretations of the biblical Joseph story. Assuming that every interpretation results from a creative encounter between the ultimately open text of Scripture and the specific thought world of the interpreter, it examines the particular way in which each exegete construes the biblical outline of Joseph's character. Paying special attention to the literary nature of the sources, the study begins with an analysis of the narrative methods and the hermeneutic potential of the biblical story, and then proceeds to the inter-testamental evidence. The central concern of this study is to compare the different interpretations of the philosopher Philo, the historian Josephus and the Midrash Genesis Rabbah. These sources do not only range over a considerable amount of time but significantly derive respectively from the Greek and Hebrew cultural realm. Consequently, their figures of Joseph fulfil distinctly different purposes, ranging from an idealisation of Joseph as a Hellenistic politician to autobiographical apologetics and religious instruction.

Abstract

Genesis Rabbah, the earliest rabbinic commentary on the book of Genesis, was composed in Roman Palestine around the fifth century CE and continued to be studied throughout medieval and modern times. In this volume, an international team of scholars explores the literary formation and textual transmission of this work as well as the historical, cultural, religious, and political contexts in which it was composed. -- From back cover.

Abstract

Wat hebben het Jodendom, Christendom en de Islam gemeen? Het zijn niet alleen monotheïstische religies, maar ook religies van het boek. Men gelooft in het bestaan van één God, die de wereld heeft geschapen en zich in zijn worden heeft geopenbaard aan de mens. Die woorden, dat zijn de openbaringen in een heilig boek, dat zich vanwege diezelfde goddelijke oorsprong onderscheidt van alle andere boeken: de Tanach, de Bijbel en de Koran.
