THE CONCEPT of "Wisdom" (Hebrew hokhmah, Greek sophia), and the literature surrounding it, is one of the most distinctive and most discussed cultural phenomena in the history of ancient Israel.

Descripción de contraportada

"Innovative, bold, well written, full of new insights, and based on broad scholarship and a creative imagination as well as plain old common sense, Peter Schfer's new study makes an important contribution to the history of Jewish mysticism, Jewish-Christian cultural studies, and the history of religions."--Ivan Marcus, Yale University

"Reading this book is a great delight. Schfer deals with a fascinating issue--the history of the female deity--and, as he does so, he fully reveals the intimacy and closeness of Jewish-Christian relations during the Middle Ages. The book is provocative, written with drive, fluent in diverse literary spheres, and of major importance."--Israel Jacob Yuval, Hebrew University
