Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Legends of Our Fathers: A Collection of Legends From Ancient Rabbinical Writings
This book is an attempt to familiarize the reader with the heroes of the biblical period as pictured in the old rabbinic literature.
It is needless to point out the object of such a collection of oriental narratives, for the reader upon perusing same will be the best judge.
The author desires to offer an apology for not giving origin after each narrative. Most of the stories being pieced together from various works, it would be burdensome to the reader to be diverted from the topic by constant notes.
