	MyJewishLearning.com - Holidays: The Rabbinic Tradition
		Nonetheless, rabbinic tradition continued to develop a rich body of texts and ideas about trees, even as the holiday of Tu Bishvat lay all but dormant for hundreds of years.

	The Rabbinic Epithet Gevurah
		Rabbinic "theology" is elusive not because rabbinic texts are devoid of theological doctrines but rather because of the manner in which these doctrines are presented.
		Rabbinic discourse is a form of "textual reasoning," a way of forming ideas in exchange with the authoritative traditions, written and oral, in order to enrich the tradition through truthful transmission, refined categorization, and new, ingenious interpretation.
		Traditionally, rabbinic attributions were regarded as historically reliable (i.e., traditional scholars usually accept it as historical when a midrash is attributed to R. Akiba and use it for a reconstruction of the opinions held by this early 2nd-century sage).

		Rabbinic literature left no personal writings by rabbis in their own names, and certainly no autobiography or personal reflection.' What is perhaps even more significant is the lack of raw material.
		Rabbinic literature never systematically told the life of any of its heroes, nor did it preserve the materials necessary for such a story, but it still contains materials that relate to various rabbinic figures.
		Recasting rabbinic materials in a context that highlights biographical issues and attempts to some extent to arrive at the historical person is thus, to a small degree, a way of casting a rabbinic biography.

		Rabbinic Judaism or Rabbinism (or in Hebrew "Yahadut Rabanit" - יהדות רבנית) was the continuation of the Pharisees after the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE.

	Rabbinic literature
		Rabbinic literature, in the broadest sense, can mean the entire spectrum of rabbinic writing throughout history.
		The latter, more specific, sense is how the term is normally used in medieval and modern rabbinic writing (where Hazal normally refers only to the sages of the talmudic era), and in contemporary academic writing (where "rabbinic literature" refers to talmud, midrash, and related writings, but hardly ever to later texts).
		The Mishnah and the Tosefta (compiled from materials pre-dating 200 CE) are the earliest extant works of rabbinic literature, explaining Judaism's oral law.

	Question 1: Is "Rabbinic Mysticism" an oxymoron (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
		Those who are unhappy with this world-view might wish to glamorize this kind of "mysticism" as a way of rebelling against science or showing that science doesn't know everything; and that the claim that the rabbis were mystics then becomes an effort to provide religious authority for the revolt.
		The fundamental premise of rabbinic Judaism, that all truth is to be found within a sacred text or body of learning, is about as opposed to scientific rationalism as one can be.
		Anthropomorphism is very prominent in rabbinic literature; it has stimulated both ridicule and apologetic from the beginning of the Middle Ages onward.

	Who knows Four? The Imahot in rabbinic Judaism - the Matriarchs Judaism - Find Articles
		I will also trace the concept beyond the rabbinic period and see how the imahot as a motif was employed in postrabbinic literature.
		It would seem that at least to some rabbinic sages, the Matriarchs were deemed worthy of mention as founders of Judaism, along with their male counterparts.
		Schechter explored the notion in his classic essay in Some Aspects of Rabbinic Theology.(8) The forefathers' faith serves as a reservoir of merit upon which the Jewish people may call to plead their case for mercy in God's judgment of their individual and corporate deeds.

	Jewish Women - A Feminist Reading of Midrash
		Hence, it is not sufficient to differentiate between rabbinic stories and commentaries that are good for women, that in fact praise women, and between those that border on misogyny or are outright sexist.
		If our question is merely about the rabbinic attitude towards women as it is reflected in the stories, we will find attitudes ranging from putting women on a pedestal to blaming women for the evils of the world.
		Rather, the reinvention of the (rabbinic midrashic) text happens when readers can no longer be blind to questions about gender, when the absence of women becomes visible, when literary or cultural representation is no longer merely a given.

	Asher Intrater - Rabbinic Literature
		Since the rabbinic literature is so vast and diverse, we should avoid over-simplistic evaluations.
		In rabbinic literature we see concepts such as a Messianic king, the history of the Jewish people, linguistic word analysis and the covenants of Israel, which are often missing from Christian material.
		If we neglect rabbinic literature altogether, we could miss key Jewish insights on the kingdom of God, which have been lost to Christianity due to religious pride and prejudice.

	References to Jesus in Early Rabbinic Literature
		Rabbinic texts dealing with other figures (e.g., ben ["son of"] Stada, Peloni ["a certain person"], [ben] Netzer) became subsequently misapplied to Jesus.
		But given the considerable impact of rabbinic traditions on later Jewish assessments of him, it is unclear, overall, whether these conclusions could be of much practical import.
		In terms of the rabbis' cumulative understanding of Jesus, some had come to think that Jesus, while in Egypt [the newborn Jesus is depicted in Egypt in Matthew 2:13-23], had become schooled in the art of sorcery along with the charms and formulae needed to perform feats of magic.

	Bregman: Pseudepigraphy in Rabbinic Literature
		Such a perception about the fundamental nature of rabbinic culture and tradition is just one of many reasons why there has been a shift in the last generation or so of scholarship toward viewing rabbinic texts less as historical reportage and more as literature.
		This is related to the rabbinic notion that the Torah was given in accordance with the rulings of the sages.
		The notion that all specific rabbinic teachings derive from a collective tradition should, of course, be compared with the traditional view that all "torah" (written and oral) derives from the divine revelation given to Moses on Sinai and transmitted to subsequent generations, including the rabbinic sages, see m.

		In rabbinic literature, the term epicurean (apikoros) is used, but it usually refers to a heretic rather than to someone who embraces Epicurus' doctrines.
		Jewish philosophers were prone to cite rabbinic sayings in their writings as they did biblical quotations, for support of their views.

	The Early Nazarene Christians and Rabbinic Judaism
		Obviously this is prima facie evidence that the early Nazarene Church, which observed the Laws of Moses and found them not contrary to faith in the Messiah, maintained contact with Rabbinic Judaism, as it continued to develop after the destruction of the Temple.
		Rabbinic Judaism had strayed far from the original teachings of Hillel himself, who was noted as a great peacemaker, and reconciler -- a man of love, kindness, and patience.
		Either one of these -- their non-acceptance of rabbinic halakah and even more their belief in Jesus -- would have been sufficient to consign them to the category of apostates.
