Author Description

How should we explore the spiritual and ideological world of the Sages? Rabbinic thought is conveyed in the various works of Rabbinic literature, and this book offers something like a golden key to deciphering their meaning through literary study of the art of redaction. This is achieved by a systematic exploration of examples from the various genres of Rabbinic works: Mishnah, Tosefta, Midrash and Talmud.
