  • Humility — Limiting the Power of Kings a D’Var Torah on Parashat Shoftim (Deut
    Humility — Limiting the Power of Kings A D’var Torah on Parashat Shoftim (Deut. 16:18 – 21:9) By Alan I. Friedman “Shoftim v’shotrim titen-l’cha b’chol-sh’areycha … lish’vateycha….” “You shall appoint magistrates and officials for your tribes in all of your cities….” Parashat Shoftim addresses the new social reality that would emerge when the Israelites entered and conquered the Promised Land following the death of Moses. God foretells that, when the people possess the land and settle in it, they will desire to set a king over themselves, like all the nations that are around them.1 Aware that eventually, after they had forged a nation, the people would need a central authority, God gives permission for appointment of such a ruler (“You shall be free to set a king over yourself”),2 with the proviso that the king be chosen (or, at least, endorsed) by God3 — thus rooting the monarchy in divine approval. In spite of God’s permission (or command), Israel functioned without a king for over 300 years — from Joshua until Saul — under the leadership of the Judges. When the people approached the prophet Samuel to appoint a king over them, he was reluctant; ultimately he acquiesced. Samuel’s crowning of Saul as king of Israel in the eleventh century BCE initiated the monarchical system of government in Jewish history. Once on the throne, the king had broad powers. Deuteronomy, therefore, emphasized that a superior divine law applied to both king and people and that kingship of Israel was “an aspect of carrying out God’s covenantal plan.

    Original Research Midrash as exegetical approach of early Jewish exegesis, with some examples from the Book of ruth Authors: Man Ki Chan1 ABSTRACT Pieter M. Venter1 This article deals with the exegetical approach of the early Jewish school. It discusses the Affiliations: meaning and definition of midrash as a distinctive approach in Jewish interpretation. The 1Department of Old relationship between midrash and exegesis is also examined. It is shown how the process of Testament Studies, interpretation is affected by the use of midrash principles. It is also pointed out that the ancient University of Pretoria, interpretative method of midrash had social relevancy. The midrashic interpreters maintained South Africa the interest of the community and fulfilled the needs of their generation. The conclusion is drawn that early Jewish exegetes did not explain the text for its inherent meaning, but rather for its Correspondence to: use in personal purposes. They tended to read some agendas and issues into the text from the Pieter Venter exegetes themselves and their surrounding backgrounds. They aimed to meet the requirement of the social and political expectations of their reader community. Interpretation was used as a tool email: for this purpose. This exegetical trend is finally illustrated with some examples of interpretation [email protected] of the Book of Ruth.

THE OVEN OF AKHNAI One of the most celebrated Talmudic parables begins with a re- markably dry legal issue debated among a group of rabbis. A modern reader should think of the rabbis as a collegial court, very much like a secular appellate court, because the purpose of their debate is to gen- erate edicts that will bind the community. The issue under debate concerns the ritual cleanliness of a baked earthenware stove, sliced horizontally into rings and cemented back together with unbaked mortar. Do the laws of purity that apply to uncut stoves apply to this one as well? This stove is the so-called "oven of Akhnai" (oven of serpents).

The Vilna Gaon, Part 1 How Modern Was He? by Marc B. Shapiro Eliyahu Stern, The Genius: Elijah of Vilna and the Making of Modern Judaism (New Haven, 2013) Eliyahu Stern has set for himself a daunting task and argues his case with conviction. He intends to correct a widespread assumption shared not only by the general public, but by the scholarly community as well. According to this narrative, the Vilna Gaon (hereafter the Gaon) should not be seen as a traditionalist defender of the past, but actually a modern Jew and one who helped usher in the modern era in Jewish history. In Stern’s words, “I [have] come to believe that [Jacob] Katz’s and [Michael K.] Silber’s notion of tradition and traditionalism fails to explain the experience of the overwhelming majority of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century eastern European Jews who did not spend their days either combating the Western European secular pursuit of science, philosophy and mathematics or holding onto the same political and social structures of their sixteenth- and seventeenth- century ancestors.

  • Judaism and Jewish Philosophy 19 Judaism, Jews and Holocaust Theology
    Please see the Cover and Contents in the last pages of this e-Book Online Study Materials on JUDAISM AND JEWISH PHILOSOPHY 19 JUDAISM, JEWS AND HOLOCAUST THEOLOGY JUDAISM Judaism is the religion of the Jewish people, based on principles and ethics embodied in the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) and the Talmud. According to Jewish tradition, the history of Judaism begins with the Covenant between God and Abraham (ca. 2000 BCE), the patriarch and progenitor of the Jewish people. Judaism is among the oldest religious traditions still in practice today. Jewish history and doctrines have influenced other religions such as Christianity, Islam and the Bahá’í Faith. While Judaism has seldom, if ever, been monolithic in practice, it has always been monotheistic in theology. It differs from many religions in that central authority is not vested in a person or group, but in sacred texts and traditions. Throughout the ages, Judaism has clung to a number of religious principles, the most important of which is the belief in a single, omniscient, omnipotent, benevolent, transcendent God, who created the universe and continues to govern it. According to traditional Jewish belief, the God who created the world established a covenant with the Israelites, and revealed his laws and commandments to Moses on Mount Sinai in the form of the Torah, and the Jewish people are the descendants of the Israelites. The traditional practice of Judaism revolves around study and the observance of God’s laws and commandments as written in the Torah and expounded in the Talmud. With an estimated 14 million adherents in 2006, Judaism is approximately the world’s eleventh-largest religious group.
