About this title

Synopsis

Neusner (U. of South Florida) introduces and critiques four approaches to describing the structure, system, and Western context of formative rabbinic Judaism -- casting his lot with the last: nominalist, harmonistic, theological, and historical. Indexed by biblical and Talmudic reference as well as subject.
