Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"This thoughtful study adds another learned piece to readers' understanding of the Zohar, the most famous work in the history of Jewish mysticism . . . Recommended." -- S. T. Katz * CHOICE * "'Rabbi Hiyya and Rabbi Yose were walking on the road.' Traditional commentators ignore the Zohar's narrative framework; in this fascinating book, David Greenstein refocuses our attention on this vital element. He demonstrates how the 'walking motif' enables the Zohar to address the mundane, to explore not just the 'sacred center,' but also its everyday periphery." -- Daniel Matt * Editor and Translator of The Zohar, Pritzker Edition *

Reseña del editor:

This book opens new perspectives on the Zohar, the greatest book of Jewish mysticism, by examining its unique approach to narrative.
