Sommario/riassunto

Explores the history of Jewish messianism, looking at all the Jewish messiahs about whom anything is known, introducing each of these in



turn and offering excerpts of the original texts that tell their stories. By examining the messianic idea in the tradition which gave rise to it, Lenowitz sheds light on this aspect of Jewish history.
