Editorial Reviews
Review
"Nothing better illustrates the odd intimacy of the Bible and interpretation than Legends of the Jews, a seven volume set of biblical interpretations that was compiled by the famous Judaic scholar Louis Ginzburg nine decades ago, and that remains unsurpassed and indispensable today." -- Boston Book Review, December 1998
Product Description
The notes for Volumes Three and Four tell where legends appear and reappear, where versions differ and where they contradict one another. When legends have been the subject of learned interpretation or debate, Ginzberg provides guidance to the commentaries and disputants; when the legends are part of a larger controversy, he provides context.
