Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book delves into the transformation of David from a biblical king to a rabbinic sage, as depicted in various Rabbinic texts from late antiquity, including the Mishnah, Yerushalmi, and Bavli. It examines how these writings reinterpret David's legacy, positioning him not only as the progenitor of the Messiah but also as a rabbi in the eyes of the Rabbis. Neusner's exploration highlights the interplay between scriptural narrative and Rabbinic thought, revealing the complexities of David's character through these theological perspectives.
