Recalling the Covenant,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Seeking the meaning of the biblical text, Rabbi Shamah, who leads a Sephardic congregation in Brooklyn, New York, applies literary techniques in deep readings of the Pentateuch or Five Books of Moses. Based on his own translations for the most part, his analysis balances traditional "plain meaning" biblical interpretation with modern scholarship in fields such as archeology and linguistics. Organizing the material per the Jewish tradition of parashat (the weekly Torah portion reading) starting with Genesis, he presents lucid commentary on key themes in the context of other interpretations, intertextual linkages, metaphorical accounts, symbolism, and apparently intentional quirks in narrative wording or syntax. The volume includes a glossary of terms and commentators. Annotation ?012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
