The Arabic Translation and Commentary of Yefet ben ʿEli the Karaite on the Books of Amos, Haggai, and Malachi
Brill (Verlag)
978-90-04-46214-4 (ISBN)
A critical scholarly edition of the Karaite Yefet ben ʿEli ha-Levi's (10th-century) Judaeo-Arabic translation of and commentary on the prophetic books Amos, Haggai, and Malachi, including a comparison of 19 manuscripts and an extensive introduction. The introduction discusses Yefet's exegesis of the three books, his approaches to the biblical narratives, his polemic with the Rabbanites, and the exegetical principles he uses in his translation of the verses. Yefet ben ʿEli was one of the most important biblical commentators of the early Middle Ages. He translated all the books of the Bible into Judaeo-Arabic and composed a long commentary on them. His commentaries on the books of Amos, Haggai, and Malachi reflect his method of biblical exegesis and present unique interpretive ideas.
Meirav Nadler-Akirav, Ph.D. (2010), Bar-Ilan University, is a lecturer on Judaeo-Arabic studies in the Arabic Department. She has published extensively on Yefet’s biblical exegesis, especially on the prophetic books.
