Performing Israel's Faith: Narrative and Law in Rabbinic Theology
Jacob Neusner
If law alone yields legalism, then religious belief, by itself, fails to create justice. In Performing Israel's Faith, Jacob Neusner shows how Jewish Halakhah (law) and Aggadah (narrative) fit together to form a robust and coherent covenant theology - one directly concerned about this world.
