Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. One of the central claims that Textual Rivalries makes is that the Kabbalah is often mislabeled as mysticism. Demystifying kabbalistic thought, Gilad Elbom treats it as a logical and consistent framework that promotes a new understanding of human-divine relations, social and psychological mechanisms, and the very idea of biblical interpretation. As such, the kabbalistic tradition becomes an early semiotic model that foreshadows modern modes of thinking, reading, and meaning-making.At its core, Textual Rivalries probes the ways in which assigning surprising roles to familiar signifiers is achieved through an intertextual reading of the Hebrew Bible, the New Testament, and midrash, including classical rabbinic literature and inventive kabbalistic texts. Divided into five major narratives, Textual Rivalries explores the various transformations and configurations of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Moses and Jethro, Jesus and Paul, the male and female aspects of the divine system, and other key characters.Rather than a set of tried-and-true statements about an existing reality, the Bible, as Elbom shows, is a perpetually creative sign system that produces multiple meanings and generates new realities. In theological terms, the text is as continuously creative and just as imaginative as God. In many cases, the Kabbalah embodies innovative methods of biblical interpretation common to both Jewish and Christian theology. According to Kabbalistic thought, biblical interpretation itself contributes to the gradual repair of an imperfect world and functions as a major factor in the ongoing search for more profound definitions of God, language, history, and humanity. In Textual Rivalries Gilad Elbom offers a theology of textuality. By following the prompts provided by medieval kabbalistic exegesis, he argues that the universe is forged of words, God is a linguistic presence, and biblical interpretation is a semiotic practice, one endowed with a self-perpetuating power to repair an imperfect world.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A perpetually creative platform, kabbalistic literature challenges plain, predictable, or privileged interpretations of biblical narratives, reimagining and reinventing familiar characters, episodes, and images. Eve, Esther, and Judith, for example, embody the female aspect of the kabbalistic divinity, as do several nameless women whose roles the Kabbalah augments and celebrates, often in daring and surprising ways.What allows the Kabbalah to revolutionize hermeneutical practices is its capacity to explore a wide variety of styles and genres: drama, poetry, the fairy tale, the picaresque novel, the personal diary, the dream journal, surrealist fiction, magical realism, philosophical investigations, modernist modes of expression, and other storytelling strategies. This book traces the development of kabbalistic literature, from the late Middle Ages to the twenty-first century, while applying kabbalistic methods and sensibilities to the parables of Jesus, the epistles of Paul, and other related texts.Despite its literary and theological sophistication, the Kabbalah rarely promotes its unique version of the human-divine story as a definitive account or an authorized version. Refraining from favoring one meaning at the expense of others, the Kabbalah offers a truly diverse and highly capacious program that serves as a potential antidote to the current division of human experience into proverbial echo chambers. Kabbalah as Literature celebrates the mysterious complexity of the Kabbalah while demonstrating its inherent intertextual comprehensibility. In an age of algorithms that limit social interaction, this book offers a literary-theological worldview that champions an interplay of perspectives and promotes a true exchange of ideas.
