Abstract

This appendix presents a list of Hebrew and French words that occur in the book Reading the Rabbis: Christian Hebraism in the Works of Herbert of Bosham. The book explores the way in which one Christian scholar's interest in Judaism, rabbinic thought and the Hebrew language led him to offer a different dimension to the Christian understanding of the Bible, and of Jewish-Christian relations, at the time. It focuses on Herbert's role in two areas: as a Christian Hebraist and literal exegete, and as an interpreter of rabbinic texts, occasional polemicist, and negotiator between the Jewish and the Christian intellectual spheres.Keywords: Bible; Christian Hebraist; Hebrew; Jewish-Christian relations; Judaism; rabbinic text
