Joseph ha-Yerushalmi d. 1291 Fusá¹Äá¹ Egypt was a rigorous linguist and philologist philosopher and mystic and a biblical exegete of singular breadth. As well as providing us with an insight into the inner world of a profound and original thinker his oeuvre sheds light on a Jewish historical and cultural milieu that remains relatively poorly understood: the Islamic East in the post-Maimonidean period. In A Philosopher of Scripture: The Exegesis and Thought of Tanḥum ha-Yerushalmi Raphael Dascalu presents the first detailed intellectual portrait of Tanḥum ha-Yerushalmi. Tanḥum emerges as a polymath with a clear intellectual program an eclectic thinker who brought multiple traditions together in his search for the philosophical meaning of Scripture. Publisher Contents: Tanḥum ha-Yerushalmi's life and works -- Tanḥum's biblical exegesis in context -- Tanḥum's commentary to the Book of Jonah -- Tanḥum's commentary to Qohelet -- Tanḥum's commentary to the Song of Songs. Note: This is a revised version of the author's thesis doctoral--The University of Chicago 2016. Volume 80 in the Brill series "Etudes sur la Judaisme Medieval." EJM. Brill unknown books
