Review of Biblical Literature"Every so often a book comes along that enables us to view the familiar in unfamiliar ways, fundamentally reshaping our understanding of what we thought we knew so wellCabot Research Professor of American Literature, Harvard University "Throughout, the analysis is helpful and clear while never oversimplifyingThis book challenges regnant perspectives concerning the complex relationship between law and narrative in the MishnahFurthermore, the Mishnah's stories are the locus around which the Mishnah both constructs and critiques its concept of the rabbis as the ultimate arbiters of Jewish law and practice.In the second half of the book, Simon-Shoshan applies these ideas to close readings of individual Mishnaic storiesThe result is a nuanced, methodologically diverse, and highly readable contribution to the field."
