Deconstructing The Bible
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Subtitled, Abraham ibn Ezra's introduction to the Torah, this book represents the first attempt by a single author to place the great Spanish Jewish Hebrew Bible exegete, grammarian, philosopher, poet, astronomer, astrologer and scientist Abraham ibn Ezra (1089-1164) in his complete contextual environment. It charts his unusual travels and discusses changes and contradictions in his hermeneutic approach, analysing his vision for the future for the Jewish people in the Christian north of Europe, rather than Muslim Spain. Its also examines his influence on subsequent Jewish thought, as well as his place in the wider hermeneutic debate. The book contains a new translation of ibn Ezra's introduction to the Torah, written in Lucca, northern Italy, together with a full commentary. Hardback in very good condition. The covers are clean and unmarked with no creasing. The book is securely bound and the pages are clean. Author's gift inscription.
