Book Synopsis How Do We Know This? by : Jay M. Harris
Book excerpt: This book is a study of rabbinic legal interpretation (midrash) in Judaisms rabbinic, medieval, and modern periods. It shows how the rise of Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox Judaism in the modern period is tied to distinct attitudes toward the classical Jewish heritage, and specifically, toward rabbinic midrash halakah.
