Beskrivning

The essays in this volume address the conundrum of how Jewish believers in the divine character of the Sinaitic revelation confront the essential questions raised by academic biblical studies. The first part is an anthology of rabbinic sources, from the medieval period to the present, treating questions that reflect a critical awareness of the Bible. The second part is a series of twenty-one essays by contemporary rabbis and scholars on how they combine their religious beliefs with their critical approach to the Bible.

“For observant Judaism to survive biblical criticism’s heavyartillery it will have to further articulate the meaning of its faith claims.This will allow it to remain faithful to its traditions while maintaining amature dialogue with contemporary modes of thought. … The authors’sophisticated theological discourse inspires those who care about this tensionto guide that debate towards the theological arena and away from the BeitMidrash. That is the arena in which orthodox creativity is most possible. Thebook convincingly demonstrates that retooling our theological formulations willallow orthodoxy to see these modernizing trends as complementary, notadversarial.” —Rabbi Ysoscher Katz, Marginalia
