Publisher's Synopsis
Talmudic Legends: Hymns And Paraphrases is a book written by Alice Lucas and published in 1908. The book is a collection of hymns and paraphrases that are based on Talmudic legends. The Talmud is a central text of Judaism, and it contains a vast collection of Jewish laws, stories, and teachings. In this book, Lucas has taken some of these stories and turned them into hymns and poetic paraphrases. The book is divided into two parts. The first part contains hymns that are based on Talmudic legends. These hymns are written in a lyrical style, and they explore the themes of love, faith, and hope. The second part of the book contains paraphrases of Talmudic legends. These paraphrases are written in a more narrative style, and they retell the stories of the Talmud in a poetic and imaginative way.Overall, Talmudic Legends: Hymns And Paraphrases is a unique and creative interpretation of the Talmudic tradition. It offers readers a new way to engage with these ancient stories and teachings, and it showcases Lucas's skill as a poet and storyteller. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Jewish literature, poetry, or religious studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
