Pious Irreverence: Confronting God in Rabbinic Judaism - Divinations: Rereading Late Ancient Religion
Dov Weiss
Judaism is often described as a religion that tolerates, even celebrates arguments with God. In Pious Irreverence, Dov Weiss has written the first scholarly study of the premodern roots of this distinctively Jewish theology of protest, examining its origins and development in the rabbinic age (70 CE-800 CE).
