More about the book
The book explores the interplay between Rabbinic Judaism and the prophetic messages of Jeremiah, highlighting how the Rabbis of the Talmud and Midrash reinterpret his teachings. It examines the themes of hope and atonement, particularly through the lens of Yohanan ben Zakkai's emphasis on individual conviction. By juxtaposing the prophetic and rabbinic responses to the destruction of the Temple, it argues that both traditions confront similar crises and arrive at a shared theological understanding of God's enduring love and forgiveness.
