Résumé
--
The Talmud forms an incomplete body of work that is constantly searching for meaning. Its developments are rewritings of the Bible that never fear to revisit, or even subvert, certain biblical passages deemed arcane and no longer viable for the social model the Rabbis of the Talmud wished to edify. The Talmudic interpretation is elaborated following a multi-voice process of construction and deconstruction, organised according to its writers’ ethical intentions. This essay illustrates the Talmud’s method of reasoning, with its inherent course of thought, distinctive features, as well as its incoherencies. The Biblical passages examined here focus particularly on women and the family for that is where the tension between ethics and Biblical revelation is most clearly evident. According to the Bible, a disobedient child must be lapidated and a jealous husband can subject his wife to a degrading ceremony to prove her adultery. Can one live in a society that would carry out such instructions? What place is there for fantasy and repression in that society? These are just a few of the questions this study undertakes to answer.
