Peshat and Derash: Plain and Applied Meaning in Rabbinic Exegesis
Halivni, David Weiss (Professor of Religious Studies, Professor of Religious Studies, Columbia University)
This text offers an explanation in this text for the willingness of the early sages to attribute to scripture meanings not suggested in the text itself. The author posits a sharp discontinuity between what the sages considered a valid meaning and our own modern understanding of textual meaning.
