Edition originale
Hardcover. Etat : vg. First edition. Quarto. XX, [2], 289, [1]pp. Original red cloth with gold lettering on spine and front cover. Publisher's logo on front board and title page. In this volume, the author analyzes Tractate Demai ("Doubtfully Tithed Produce") in Mishnah and Tosefta, the earliest extant literary sources of rabbinic Judaism. Demai is the third tractate of Seder Zeraim ("Order of Seeds") of the Mishnah and of the Talmud. There is some debate as to the literal meaning and origin of the word. It is concerned mainly with laws related to produce where it is suspected that ma'aser rishon (the first tithe for the Levi), terumat ma'aser and ma'aser sheini (the second tithe) or ma'aser ani (the tithe for the poor), depending on the year of the Shemittah cycle, have not been properly separated in accordance with Num. 18:24-28. It consists of seven chapters and has a Gemara from only the Jerusalem Talmud. Previous owner's stamp on front free endpaper (Rabbi Martin A. Cohen). Binding and interior in very good condition.

Edition originale
Hardcover. First edition. Cloth, 8vo. Xx, 289 pages. Part 1: Commentary. 25 cm. The Mishnah, in its "detailed rulings on various matters pertaining to the whole range of everyday life, " writes the author, "makes a larger statement about the cosmos, the human realm, and reason which pervades them both. " He calls for "systematic analysis. Tractate by tractate, paying careful attention to the details out of which the larger picture emerges. " Tractate Demai "sheds crucial light on the Mishnaic law of tithes. And suggests the larger connection between the law of tithing in Zeraim and the law of purities in Tohorot. " The author's investigation into the "structure and history of the ideas in Demai" and the "implications of those ideas for the history of the formation of rabbinic Judaism" begins in this volume with a "systematic literary and substantive commentary to the tractate as a whole. Confronting in minute detail the literary and hermeneutical problems of the sources. " Richard S.
