More about the book
The transformation from philosophy to religion in Judaism during 200 to 400 C.E. is expertly analyzed by Jacob Neusner, who compares earlier and later Judaic writings. He illustrates how abstract and orderly philosophical thought evolved into a more tangible and chaotic religious practice. This work not only provides a normative account of Judaism's development but also introduces a methodology applicable to the study of other religions, focusing on the interplay between philosophy, politics, and economics in shaping societal perspectives.
