Three Questions of Formative Judaism: History, Literature, and Religion - Tapa dura

The academic study of Judaism requires a systematic inquiry into the history, literature, and religion-and eventually the theology-as revealed in the historical documents themselves. This book contextualizes the canonical writings of Judaism and analyzes their literary character as a basis for understanding the theology of formative Judaism.
