  • The Challenge of Received Tradition. Dilemmas of Interpretation in Radak's Biblical Commentaries. Oxford University Press, 2013. 274p. Hardback. Grunhaus s inspired book (which does not fail to consider previous work on the subject) manages to offer a vivid, comprehensive, and precise elucidation of what makes Radak s commentary unique, in particular with regard to the relation between peshat and derash in his writings...Many of her insights on these matters are original and, above all, challenging. Grunhaus s study is remarkable in its richness of detail, and it seems nothing has eluded her attention; her sources cover extensive ground, and her writing is eloquent and reliable. Scholars and lay readers alike will derive understanding and enjoyment from her book.
