First edition. Octavo. x, 479, (1)pp. Indices and 43 page bibliography. Green buckram lettered in white with red band near top of spine. A fine, as new copy. Tan?um b. Joseph ha-Yerushalmi (d. 1291, Fus???, Egypt) was a rigorous linguist and philologist, philosopher and mystic, and a biblical exegete of singular breadth. As well as providing us with an insight into the inner world of a profound and original thinker, his oeuvre sheds light on a Jewish historical and cultural milieu that remains relatively poorly understood: the Islamic East in the post-Maimonidean period. In A Philosopher of Scripture: The Exegesis and Thought of Tan?um ha-Yerushalmi, Raphael Dascalu presents the first detailed intellectual portrait of Tan?um ha-Yerushalmi. Tan?um emerges as a polymath with a clear intellectual program, an eclectic thinker who brought multiple traditions together in his search for the philosophical meaning of Scripture. (Publisher) Contents: Tan?um ha-Yerushalmi's life and works -- Tan?um's biblical exegesis in context -- Tan?um's commentary to the Book of Jonah -- Tan?um's commentary to Qohelet -- Tan?um's commentary to the Song of Songs. Note: This is a revised version of the author's thesis (doctoral)--The University of Chicago, 2016. Volume 80 in the Brill series "Etudes sur la Judaisme Medieval." (EJM).
