Summary
This book opens the door to the reading of a classic text, Song of
Songs Rabbah. The text represents a compilation of exegesis of
the biblical book, Song of Songs, augmenting and clarifying its meaning.
In a addition, the book:
- Enables a direct and immediate encounter between the reader
and the ancient reader.
- Affords access to a religious experience born in the same
scripture that today's Judaism and Christianity value as God's
word.
- Shows how the love poetry of the biblical book is turned into
an expression of Israel's intense devotion to God.
Any understanding of the religious experience afforded by Judaism
must begin in the pages of this remarkable and affecting statement
of the formative age of Judaism.
