Originally published in 1917, this book applies Jewish approaches
to Scripture to New Testament texts in order to balance the
teaching of Jesus with that of Pharasaic Judaism. Abrahams heavily
references C. G. Montefiore's two-volume commentary on the Synoptic
Gospels, and delves deeply into the historical background to many
of the key stories and events of the Gospels, such as ancient
divorce and the importance of fasting. This book will be of value
to anyone with an interest in the Jewish context of the Gospels.
Originally published in 1924 as a sequel to the 1917 book of the
same name, this text continues to analyse New Testament teaching
using the tools of Pharisaic Judaism. Abrahams delves deeply into
the historical background to many of the key stories and events of
the Gospels, such as whitewashed tombs and rabbinic conceptions of
prayer. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in
the Jewish context of the Gospels.
This is the first in a series of comprehensive commentaries on the
"Book of Genesis" that the late Professor Umberto Cassuto had
planned as part of a magnum opus embracing the whole "Pentateuch"
and also the "Book of Psalms". The aim of this commentary is to
explain, with the help of an historico-philological method of
interpretation, the simple meaning of the Biblical text, and to
arrive, as nearly as possible, at the sense that the words of the
Torah were intended to have for the reader at the time they were
written.
