Reprint of a 1988 work (Harper & Row). Strictly speaking, Judaism is not a biblical religion according to Neusner (religious studies, U. of South Florida; Bard College, NY), who argues that Midrash--interpretations of the oral Torah-- reveal that the written Hebrew Scriptures are but half the ancient legacy. He analyzes the three major trends in Bible interpretation: exegetical, propositional, and narrative, in relation to biblical history and contemporary issues. Appends Midrash texts in Hebrew, and includes index of biblical and Talmudic references. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
