title = {Chapters in the Formative History of Judaism},
year = {2010},
note = {This collection of eight essays draws on a half-year of work, the
second six months of 2009. Neusner takes up three problems in the
history of Religions, four essays on fundamental issues in
form-history and the documentary hypothesis of the Rabbinic canon, and
one theological essay. The reason Neusner periodically collects and
publishes essays and reviews is to give them a second life, after they
have served as lectures or as summaries of monographs or as
free-standing articles or as expositions of Judaism in collections of
comparative religions. This re-presentation serves a readership to
whom the initial presentation in lectures or specialized journals or
short-run monographs is inaccessible. Some of the essays furthermore
provide a prZcis, for colleagues in kindred fields, of fully worked
out monographs, the comparative Midrash exercise, for example.},
