Publisher's Synopsis
"The Midrash of the death of Moses, our teacher, is a text belonging to the midrashic literature, one of those jewels that have gone unnoticed by the general public, and that only a few specialists know and appreciate. This text is a commentary on a well-known but misunderstood Judeo-Spanish proverb: "No one is a prophet in his own land". In the end, like all mortals, Moses will die, but not like other men, not at the hands of the Angel of Death, but from a kiss of the Eternal."--
