EARLY RABBINIC JUDAISM. New York, JTS Press, 2002. ISBN: 0873340876. =
Paperback, xix, 188 pages, illustrated, 24 cm. The Passover and its rite =
are central in the history of Judaism and Christianity. Explaining how =
the Passover evening celebration, the seder, became one of the most =
popular Jewish rituals, Baruch M. Bokser shows how it was based on and =
transformed a biblical sacrificial meal. Bokser demonstrates the =
significance of the motif of Passover in ancient Judaism, indicating why =
Jews and Christians employed it to express hopes for redemption. And he =
also illuminates the process of historical development through the =
interaction of a traditional heritage with contemporary and outside =
cultural influences. This is a fascinating book which will add much to =
our understanding of Judaism and Christianity and of the nature of =
religion in a changing world. Baruch Bokser was ordained as a rabbi at =
Jewish Theological Seminary and also received a Ph. D. In religious =
studies from Brown University. Beginning in 1974, he taught at the =
University of California at Berkeley, leaving in 1982 for Dropsie =
College in Philadelphia (now the Annenberg Research Institute for Judaic =
and Near Eastern Studies) . Then in 1986, Bokser returned to the Jewish =
Theological Seminary to join the faculty and where, at his early death =
at age 44 in 1990, he was the director of the program in ancient =
Judaism. "Packs facts, analysis and insight into its relatively short =
141 pages of text and footnotes. The hypothesis and argument are clearly =
spelled [out] and and then supported by detailed references to various =
Talmud and Mishnah sections which are reproduced as necessary. =
Although...reprinted in 2002, it is current and consistent with more =
recent works. I read the book in the weeks leading up to 2009 Passover =
holidays and found much in Dr. Bokser's work to work into the actual =
Seder and ignite the interest of those present. In essence, Dr. Bokser =
makes a very persuasive case that the Passover Seder, as molded in the =
Hagaddah, was one of the key pillars for the survival of Judaism after =
the catastrophic destruction of the Second Temple in 70 C. E. Certainly, =
he establishes that the basics of the Seder as we know it today with its =
emphasis on freedom, community and symbolic ritual owes its genesis to =

Mo=E2=80=99ed, Nashim, and Nezikin) according to Codex Vienna, with =
variants, references to parallel passages in Talmudic literature and =

researcher and for many years Rector of the Jewish Theological Seminary =
of America, devoted much of his study to the systematic elucidation of =
the Tosefta. He undertook the publication of the Tosefta text, based on =
manuscripts and accompanied by brief explanatory notes, and of an =
extensive commentary called Tosefta ki-Fshutah. The latter combined =
philological research and historical observations with a discussion of =
the entire Talmudic and Rabbinic literature in which the relevant =
Tosefta text is either commented upon or quoted. Prof. =
Lieberman=E2=80=99s scholarship demonstrates how he combines vast =
erudition in all fields of Talmudic and Rabbinic literature with a =
penetrating knowledge of the classical world. Prof. Lieberman opened new =

181 p. : ill. ; 23 cm. ISBN: 0873340914 9780873340915. Textual =
Knowledge: Teaching the Bible in Theory and in Practice is a book aimed =
at anyone who wishes to explore what it means to teach the Bible, one of =
the foundational texts of Western culture. In this volume the author =
explores the largest issues involved in Bible teaching: What are our =
purposes? What are the outcomes that we are looking for? How do we =
conceptualize the Bible as a subject matter? How do we develop theories =
of Bible teaching? And how do we move from theory to practice? Looking =
at a variety of alternative conceptions, Textual Knowledge helps offer =
clarity about a teacher's goals and practical advice about what it means =
to attain those goals. In addition the book explores the relationship =
between knowledge of Bible and teaching the Bible. What kind of =
knowledge does the Bible teacher need to have? How must that knowledge =
of subject matter be structured and conceptualized? How might differing =
scholarly conceptions of the discipline influence teachers' ways of =
thinking about the Bible? Drawing upon recent research in the field of =
general education, the author draw connections to the domain of Bible =
education. As a book that embraces both theoretical issues and practical =
concerns, Textual Knowledge explores matters of central concern to =
Jewish educators in particular, but is relevant to educators from other =
religious traditions and for those teaching the Bible in secular =
institutions such as universities as well. At its heart the author seeks =
to improve Bible pedagogy-making it deeper, richer, more reflective, and =
more powerful for students of any age and in any setting. $25.00

86 + 41 p. : facsims., map ; 25 cm. ISBN: 9654560372 9789654560375. =
Ma=C2=B4sar kesafim (income tithing) is a long-standing Jewish practice. =
First mentioned in a midrash of a third/fourth-century scholar, it was =
popularized in the Middle Ages among Ashkenazic Jewry, who not only =
designated communal tax obligations as ma=C2=B4aser, but also developed =
ma=C2=B4sar kesafim as a practice of individuals desirous of habituating =
themselves to give to charity in a disciplined and ongoing fashion. =
Individual Jews dedicate themselves to this personal practice to the =
present day. Although Pinkese ma=C2=B4sar kesafim (income tithe ledgers) =
are mentioned here and there in the literature, none have yet been found =
and published. Fortunately, Mordecai Zeev Ehrenpreis, a kind-hearted Jew =
in mid-nineteenth century Lvov (Lemberg), took a vow to practice =
ma=C2=B4sar kesafim one year before he married, kept a detailed record =
of the income and disbursements of this fund, and eventually bequeathed =
us his Pinkas. This most informative and fascinating document is edited =
and published herein. Ehrenpreis commences with a detailed protocol =
enumerating the nature and conditions of his vow; he also intersperses =
his accounts with eloquent meditations on his uncertain financial state =
and on dangers confronting his family, providing the reader a full image =
of his world. A comprehensive introduction examines the history and =
practice of ma=C2=B4sar kesafim, tracing the stages in its development =
as well as the meaning it held for Ehrenpreis. Jay Rovner holds a Ph.D. =
in Talmud and Rabbinics from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, =
where he serves as the Manuscript Bibliographer of its library. He has =
published studies of the development of the Talmud and the nature of the =
Stammaitic component of its text, and on Jewish liturgy and its =
development. $25.00
