Looks at what it means for new generations to read and interpret ancient religious texts. This book offers a postmodern reading of the "Talmud", one of the first of its kind. It discusses spirituality and religious practice with such concepts as deconstruction, intertextuality, undecidability, multiple voicing, and eroticism in the "Talmud".
