Jacob Neusner

Comparative Midrash

Sifré to Numbers and Sifré Zutta to Numbers

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The documentary hypothesis of the Rabbinic canon of late antiquity maintains that complete documents form the smallest whole building blocks of the Rabbinic system. These two volumes compare the rhetorical/formal and exegetical traits of two entire, kindred documents. What makes it surprising is the result: they have nothing in common.
