Journal of Textual Reasoning
In this issue we engage two subjects which, though they are arguably at the heart of anything that might be called "textual reasoning," have not as of yet been explored in the journal. The two subjects are Zionism and liturgy, or more specifically, feminist liturgy. The dialogue that is the first article in this issue emerges from an on-line discussion from this past summer. It has been edited for linear coherence, but hopefully not at the expense of the passion of the original (though some of the fire was doused). Elon Sunshine did a wonderful job editing the dialogue—not even …

In this issue we continue the discussion of JUDAISM IN THE CURRICULUM, a discussion initiated by Aryeh Cohen who solicited contributions on this matter. We would like to renew this call for submissions. The matter is important and concerns most of us. How is Judaism represented in institutions of higher (or lower?) learning? What does it mean to educate ABOUT rather than IN Judaism? What about the inside vs. the outside perspective? How much critical scholarship should be part of our courses if our students often lack much of the traditional knowledge or familiarity with content of the sacred literature …

This issue continues a conversation about martyrdom in/and the Talmud that began at the PostModern Jewish Philosophy Network Talmud Institute in Princeton in August, 1995. Liz Shanks’ article and the responses to it in Volume 5.1 started the on-line conversation. I published an article (“Towards an Erotics of Martyrdom”) in Textual Reasoning 5.2, hoping that it would widen the circle of discussants further. With the essays in this issue that hope is realized.
There are three different groups of responses in this issue. The first group are those who are responding directly to the article and the sugya, and the …

Journal of Textual Reasoning
This is the final issue of Textual Reasoning for 1996. In it we introduce you to a recent restatement of the central doctrine of the Jewish rationalist tradition, the doctrine of ethical monotheism. Lenn Goodman’s book GOD OF ABRAHAM, erudite and elegantly written, is a philosophical book and a work whose philosophical statements are formulated out of an engaged reading of the classical Jewish sources. In this sense it is an instance of ‘textual reasoning.’ Furthermore, with its emphasis on the ongoing project of a mutual interpretation of the God of the Hebrew prophets and the Platonic idea of the …

Welcome to the latest issue of TEXTUAL REASONING. As many of you may know, Peter Ochs has moved himself into the wings and behind the scenes, and a new editorial team has taken over from him. You will find our introductions below. Needless to say we are appreciative for Peter’s giving us this opportunity, and will also be looking for him to continue to play an active role in upcoming issues and activities.

It is motze tisha b’av, and these summer greetings come to you in a spirit of change, hopeful yet sober. A complex day, is it not, for Jews in the scribal/pharisaic/rabbinic tradition of textual reasoning? A day of terrible loss, against a backdrop of ominous politics, that also became a time “to do for the Lord” – eyt la’asot lashem.” Our tradition of oral Torah appears to have achieved cultural authority by way of suffering. After this day, according to the mishnah in Berachot 40a, the pharisaic sages recited “l’olam u’l’olam” after psalms once recited in the Temple, one “forever” …

This issue is redacted at another time of terrible loss in Israel, the bus bombing and terrorist attacks of February 22. Included among the murdered, Matthew Eisenfeld z”l and Sarah Duker z”l were known to many members of this Network: Matthew, a rabbinical student at the Jewish Theological Seminary, scholar, poet, spokesperson for peace; Sarah, graduate student in science at the Hebrew University, scholar, poet, spokesperson for peace. “For those do I weep, My ears stream tears, Comfort has left me, None can restore My spirit, My children are desolate.”

For our shared work, this is a year pregnant with many new possibilities. We have many new plans and projects to tell you about, including a new Network Editorial Board with nine new Contributing Editors. But all we’ll mention now is that our new Managing Editor is David Seidenberg of the Jewish Theological Seminary. The time to tell you about the rest is after the New Year...For now, the present (issue) is too full to leave room for (words about) the future! G’mar Hatimah Tovah!
