After publishing a number of books in the history, literature,
social thought, history of religion, and theology of formative
Judaism, in the first six centuries C.E., Neusner explains the
principal stages in the unfolding of his oeuvre. He introduces the
documentary reading of the canonical components, one by one. He
proceeds to the description, analysis, and interpretation of
religious systems that comprise Rabbinic Judaism. He then sets
forth the documentary history of the formation of Rabbinic Judaism
in antiquity, its transformation from a philosophical to a
religious system for Israel's social order. From that diachronic
perspective turns to the generative logic that transcends the
diachronic narrative and imposes synchrony upon the whole. That
marks a shift to a synchronic perspective, now spelling out the
theological outcome of the entire venture: how the whole holds
together in a coherent and logical way.
