Engaging the Torah: La’assok Be-Divrei Torah
The book is a systematic collection of questions raised by a close reading of the text of each of the 53 chapters in the Torah, the Five Books of Moses. The aim of these questions is to provoke thought about the text, recognize the problems it poses, and stimulate inquiry into classical Biblical commentators who, over the centuries, have recognized and proposed answers to these questions. That the answers proposed by these commentators are diverse and often contradictory reveals that every proposed answer is an interpretation of a textual problem and that none are definitive answers to those problems. Every reading is an interpretation, and every reader must make their own choice from among the canonical interpretations or formulate one of their own.
