Abstract

Research has so far been unsuccessful in determining the creed of the Hebrew lexicographer Menahem ben Saruq. Though most probably suspected of Karaism already in his day, there is no conclusive and decisive evidence to prove whether he was Karaite or Rabbanite. In this article, I suggest that Menahem’s choice of verses in one of his lexicon entries reflects a textually non-trivial interpretation originating in midrash, thereby suggesting that he was, in fact, Rabbanite.

卡拉特人还是拉比：梅纳赫姆的马赫贝雷的启示

到目前为止，研究还没有成功地确定希伯来语词典编纂者梅纳赫姆·本·萨鲁克的信条。虽然很可能在他那个时代就已经被怀疑是卡拉教，但没有确凿的证据来证明他是卡拉派还是拉比派。在这篇文章中，我认为梅纳赫姆在他的一个词典条目中选择的诗句反映了源自midrash的文本上非琐碎的解释，从而表明他实际上是拉比。

期刊介绍： Zutot: Perspectives on Jewish Culture aims to fill a gap that has become more and more conspicuous among the wealth of scholarly periodicals in the field of Jewish Studies. Whereas existing journals provide space to medium and large sized articles, they neglect the small but poignant contributions, which may be as important as the extended, detailed study. The Zutot serves as a platform for small but incisive contributions, and provides them with a distinct context. The substance of these contributions is derived from larger perspectives and, though not always presented in an exhaustive way, will have an impact on contemporary discussions. The Zutot covers Jewish culture in its broadest sense, i.e. encompassing various academic disciplines—literature, languages and linguistics, philosophy, art, sociology, politics and history—and reflects binary oppositions such as religious and secular, high and low, written and oral, male and female culture.
