How should we understand the stories of the Babylonian Talmud?
Where do they come from? Why are they in the Talmud? How do they
relate to Talmudic law? In "Talmudic Stories," Jeffrey Rubenstein
deepens our appreciation for the complexity of these texts by
drawing attention to the literary aspects and cultural contexts
that are essential to understanding their narrative art, meanings,
and importance. Focusing on six famous stories of the Babylonian
Talmud and discussing many others in relation to these,
Rubenstein's analysis illuminates the ways in which the rabbis used
narratives to grapple with fundamental tensions of their culture.
The book also features an appendix including the original
Hebrew/Aramaic texts for the reader's reference.
The heart of Christian reality is a society-a Trinity-of persons
living with and for one another. God created us to live in bonds of
society and friendship, not as lone rangers. The Christian faith
presents friendship and hospitality not as luxuries but
necessities. God does not save us in isolation but in community
with other people. There is no possibility of living to the glory
of God apart from godly companions. In this book, Steve Wilkins
seeks to call us back to the joyous obligations of friendship and
hospitality. Pastor Steve Wilkins (M.Div., Reformed Theological
Seminary) is an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church in
America and serves as pastor of Auburn Avenue Presbyterian Church,
Monroe, Louisiana. He is the author of Call to Duty: The Sterling
Nobility of Robert E. Lee (Cumberland House), and he and his wife
Wendy have six children.
