This book offers the first systematic explanation of why the midrash collections were written. Jacob Neusner investigates the circumstances in which the earliest midrash collections were organized around the Pentateuch, and explains both the purpose of the work and its historical context. Included are an appendix, a bibliography, a scripture index, and a subject index. This copy is clean and solid.
