בין ספרות קומראן למדרש ההלכה: לשחזורו של פולמוס פרשני
Comparative study of Qumran literature and tannaitic midrashim may yield surprising results – insight into interpretative polemics from the Second Temple period, enriched understanding of the growth of early halakhah, and reconstruction of ancient layers of halakhic midrash. Each of these is illustrated in the current study, an investigation of the laws of corpse-impurity in Qumran literature and in tannaitic midrashim.
