Description
Three ancient crises shaped Jewish canonical writings: the destruction of Solomon's temple, the loss of Herod's temple, and the acceptance of Christianity as Rome's state religion. Illustrating Judaism's responses to these events, Jacob Neusner shows how rabbinic reinterpretations of religious texts helped them discover a truth that is continuous with the past and responsive to the future.
