  • Sinai Upside-Down: the Theological Message of a Midrash
    SINAI UPSIDE-DOWN: THE THEOLOGICAL MESSAGE OF A MIDRASH RAYMOND APPLE The two major lines of Jewish exegesis are peshat – the plain meaning, and derash – the homiletical interpretation. It could be said that peshat is more objective and derash more subjective, but this generalization should not be pressed too far. There is a popular notion that derash is a sort of Jewish Ae- sop's Fables , a collection of legendary material that provides extra drama and color; but it would be a mistake to imagine that the masters of Midrash were mere tellers of tales. In most midrashim there is a message which we can begin to uncover by asking: What idea does the midrashic text want to teach? When we ask this question we find that the Sages of the Midrash were seri- ous philosophers who often used derash to address major problems in theol- ogy and ethics. This paper shows how the exegesis of an ambiguous word in the Bible leads in two different directions, with the contrast between peshat and derash allowing the rabbinic Sages to read important theological content into – or out of – a seemingly innocuous verse. That verse is Exodus 19:17, which speaks about where the Israelites were when the Torah was given. The verse reads: va-yityatzevu be-tahtit ha-har. If we try to imagine the scene, we may visualize a large crowd gathered in open country with the mountain looming in the background, apparently indicating a peshat of they stood at the foot of the mountain . Tahtit is connected with tahat , "under, be- low, beneath." These translations appear to be interchangeable synonyms, 1 and are generally treated as such .

  • Maimonides on the Purpose of Ritual Sacrifices
    religions Essay Weaning Away from Idolatry: Maimonides on the Purpose of Ritual Sacrifices Reuven Chaim Klein Independent Researcher, Beitar Illit 90500, Israel; [email protected] Abstract: This essay explores Maimonides’ explanation of the Bible’s rationale behind the ritual sacrifices, namely to help wean the Jews away from idolatrous rites. After clearly elucidating Maimonides’ stance on the topic, this essay examines his view from different angles with various possible precedents in earlier rabbinic literature for such an understanding. The essay also shows why various other Jewish commentators objected to Maimonides’ understanding and how Maimonides might respond to those critiques. Additionally, this essay also situates Maimonides’ view on sacrifices within his broader worldview of the Bible’s commandments in general as serving as a counterweight to idolatrous rituals. Keywords: sacrifices; theology; maimonides; ritual; idolatry; paganism; cult; fetishism; nahmanides; judaism; bible; midrash; talmud; rabbinics; philosophy; rationalism; polemics; mysticism; ancient near east; bible studies 1. Maimonides’ Position In his Guide for the Perplexed (3:30, 3:32), Maimonides explains that the Torah’s main objective is to eradicate the viewpoint of paganism. Thus, to truly understand the Torah’s original intent, one must be familiar with the philosophies and practices of ancient idolaters (in Maimonidean terms, this refers to practitioners of non-monotheistic religions). Citation: Klein, Reuven Chaim. 2021. Weaning Away from Idolatry: Taking this idea a step further, Maimonides seemingly assumes that ritual sacrifices Maimonides on the Purpose of Ritual are a sub-optimal form of worship, leading him to making the bold statement that the Torah Sacrifices.

  • Romance Vs. Prenuptial Agreements to Prevent Get-Refusal: a Practical Guide for Presenting the Topic
    Romance vs. Prenuptial Agreements to Prevent Get-Refusal: A Practical Guide for Presenting the Topic Rachel Levmore The Question In conversations with rabbis or professionals who provide marriage counseling, as well as in journals1 on related subjects, the same question arises over and over again, expressed at times with a note of hopelessness: “How does one present an agreement to prevent get-refusal to a couple in love, dreaming of a long and happy life together, without causing problems?” In fact, a better and more productive formulation of the question would be, “How do I go about presenting a prenuptial agreement without spoiling the atmosphere of love and good-will that prevails between the couple?”2 When our children approach marriage, we want the ideal of married life as a full partnership to guide the forging of the new relationship and household. In deciding any question or problem that may arise, we defer to this ideal along with the good will of the bride and the groom. We expect this same view to guide the couple throughout their marriage and – if, heaven forefend, it should become necessary – at its conclusion. However, this is not always how things turn out. Reality shows us that there is a great chasm separating the dreams that envelop us as we set out on the road of marriage and the complexity of the reality that comes crashing around us should we reach the end of the road. In truth, though, proper precautions at the outset can prevent much of the agony that may otherwise await us at the end.
