JWST 11 - (LT) Judaic Perspectives on the Hebrew Bible
Fall, Spring
An examination of Jewish Biblical interpretation from antiquity to the
present with special focus on continuities and contrasts in exegetical
method. Starting with an examination of “inner biblical exegesis” the
course proceeds to scrutinize major forms of Jewish biblical
interpretation from the period of the great Rabbinic sages in late
antiquity, to Eastern centers of Medieval Jewish scholarship (e.g.,
Babylon, Islamic Spain), to the emergence of Western European forms of
interpretation in the Renaissance to the period of Jewish
Enlightenment, to the present.
