First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: near fine. First edition. Octavo. xxxvi, 305, (1)pp. Indices and bibliography. Dark gray cloth stamped in silver, publisher's device on front cover. An ex-library copy with minimal rubber stamping on title & at bottom of text block, and a library pocket on rear pastedown. Aggadat Bereshit is a homiletic Midrash on the Book of Genesis written in Hebrew, about the 10th century CE. It has a unique threefold structure, dividing the chapters or homilies according to the three parts of Tenakh: Torah (Genesis), Prophets and Writings. It contains interesting material, some unparalleled in rabbinic literature, such as an anti-Christian interpretation of Genesis 22. Besides being the first translation, this volume presents some variants from manuscripts unknown by its last editor (S. Buber, Krakow 1903). This English translation will be welcomed in the world of Jewish and Biblical Studies, academics as well as lay-persons with lesser knowledge of rabbinic Hebrew. The extensive introduction gives an up-to-date overview of the questions as to text, contents, structure, dating and provenance of this hitherto neglected Midrash.

Add to basketHardback. Condition: New. Male circumcision is one of the oldest and most widespread rituals, it has been practiced for millennia across many parts of the world. Yet this prevalence and long history do not make circumcision self-evident: it has also long been a topic of reflection, discussion, and controversy and continues to be so today. As the cases in this volume show, already in Antiquity, Greeks, Romans, Jews and Christians clashed over male circumcision. Then as now, concerns about identity, ritual, health, masculinity, and sexuality were a factor in these disputes. Very little is known about actual circumcision practices in the ancient world. Apart from depictions in art, the relation of which to daily practice is difficult to ascertain, we have historical access mainly through texts that reveal how the practice was discursively constructed, and that relate circumcision to wider cultural practices and ideas. This book therefore mainly discusses references to circumcision in literary sources, and the way these relate to other known cultural practices and ideas. These sources date from biblical times and Antiquity and their interpretations in medieval Jewish texts and recent scholarship.

Gr.-8°, Ln. m. SU. XIV, 477 S. Neuwertiges Ex. / Fine Copy // Diese Edition rabbinischer Parabeln (Meschalim) in den beiden Mechiltot, den tannaitischen Midraschim des Buchs Exodus (3. Jh. n.Chr.), hat einen doppelten wissenschaftlichen Zweck. Sie bietet eine kritische synoptische Darstellung und Untersuchung der Textzeugen der Parabeln und einen Kommentar zu ihrer Bedeutung und Funktion innerhalb ihres literarischen und historischen Kontextes. Außerdem macht eine neue englische Übersetzung jeder Parabel die Edition zu einem nützlichen Werkzeug für interessierte Leser, die weniger Kenntnisse des Hebräischen besitzen oder nur nach einer Quellenangabe suchen. Diese Edition, welche die erste einer Reihe von Editionen der Parabeln in allen tannaitischen Werken sein soll, ist ein unerlässliches Werkzeug, nicht nur für Forscher zu jüdischen Texten, sondern auch für Studenten des Neuen Testaments und frühchristlicher Literatur, Religionshistoriker der Spätantike und für die, die an ähnlichen literarischen Gattungen wie Fabeln interessiert sind.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Memory - Papers Read at the Jewish and Christian Perspectives Conference, Utrecht 2022 connects past, present, and future. This conference volume demonstrates the diversity of 'memory' in the Jewish and Christian traditions. 'Memory' turns out to be a key to investigating and better understanding many aspects of Judaism and Christianity, including their mutual relationship. In these traditions, memory is not simply about recalling events, but about preserving identity, culture, and divine teachings. The act of remembering is central to how communities pass down their religious beliefs, laws, and moral frameworks across generations. It also plays a role in communal cohesion, ensuring that the experiences of the fathers and their wisdom would not get lost, but rather actively re-lived and celebrated.
Hardback. Condition: New. This edition of rabbinic parables (meshalim) in the two Mekhiltot, the tannaitic Midrashim to the book of Exodus (3rd century CE), has a double scholarly purpose. It offers a critical synoptic presentation and study of the textual witnesses of the parables, and a commentary on their meaning and function in their literary and historical context. Moreover, a new English translation of every parable will make the edition a useful tool for interested readers with less knowledge of Hebrew, or those merely looking for a quick reference. This edition, which intends to be the first in a series of editions of parables in all the tannaitic works, is an indispensable tool not only for scholars of Jewish texts, but also for students of the New Testament and early Christian literature, historians of religion in late Antiquity, and those interested in similar literary genres, such as fables.
