Modern Jewish Culture's Relation to the Bible: Creative Mediating Interpretation -- $tPhilosophy of the Biblical Narrative -- $tIndex 330 $aThe fundamental book of Eliezer Schweid is a modern interpretation of the Bible as narrative and law which can reopen the dialogue of contemporary Jews with the Bible, from which a dynamic Jewish culture can continue to draw its inspiration. The approach draws at the same time from the philosophical modernism of Hermann Cohen, the dialogical philosophy of Buber, the religious phenomenology of Heschel, and the insights of contemporary Biblical scholars, including literary analysts of the Bible. Schweid helps us to appreciate the broader message of the narrative of creation and settlement of the land in its ecumenical and planetary dimensions. The world is God's creation, and its resources are to be deployed as necessary for the sustenance and need-fulfillment of all peoples and all creatures equally-a message very much relevant to the ecological crisis facing us all at the present time. 410 0$aReference library of Jewish intellectual history. 606 $aNarration in the Bible 606 $aJews$xCivilization 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNarration in the Bible. 615 0$aJews$xCivilization. 676 $a221.6 700 $aSchweid$b Eliezer$0888540 701 $aLevin$b Leonard$0963974 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457778803321 996 $aThe philosophy of the Bible as foundation of Jewish culture$92458419 997 $aUNINA
