Synopsis

Excerpt from The Ritual of Eldad Ha-Dani: Reconstructed and Edited From Manuscripts and a Genizah Fragment

More than a thousand years have elapsed since Eldad ha-dani appeared in Kairwan, and stirred the community by a remark able account of four lost tribes of Israel, and by an equally remarkable Ritual on Slaughtering which he represented as the Talmud of the Four Tribes. An interesting phenomenon in the Jewry of the ninth century, Eldad has not ceased to interest historical study of the present. In spite of this long lapse of time, however, there is still the utmost diversity of opinion among writers concerning the personality of Eldad and the authenticity and significance of the writings that hear his name.
