Authors
More about the book
The book explores the relationship between Rabbinic Judaism and Prophecy, illustrating how the Rabbis integrated prophetic teachings to reinforce their theological framework. Rabbi Neusner analyzes four key components of Rabbinic theology, including symbolism, eschatology, immanental theology, and theological systematics, demonstrating that rather than conflicting, Prophecy provided essential validation for Rabbinic beliefs. This work deepens the understanding of how the Rabbis responded to prophetic imperatives, contributing to the development of a cohesive religious system.
