Overview
Pharisaism: Its Aim And Its Method is a book written by R. Travers Herford and published in 1912. The book focuses on the religious movement known as Pharisaism, which emerged in ancient Judaism and played a significant role in shaping Jewish thought and practice. Herford examines the origins, beliefs, and practices of the Pharisees, and argues that their aim was to create a religion that was accessible to all Jews, rather than just the priestly and aristocratic classes. He also explores the methods used by the Pharisees to achieve their aims, including the development of a complex legal system and the use of oral tradition to supplement and interpret the written Torah. Throughout the book, Herford provides a nuanced and insightful analysis of Pharisaism, shedding light on a crucial period in Jewish history and offering valuable insights into the development of religious thought and practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
