Elijah

Elijah the Tishbite, from the region of Gilead, was one of the two men in the Hebrew Scriptures who did not die but was taken by God; the other was Enoch (Genesis 5:24). Under King Ahab Elijah prophesied during the reign of King Ahab of Israel. He performed his first miracles in the town of Zarephath, near Sidon, in the house of a poor widow, where he converted a handful of meal and a little oil into an endless supply and brought back to life the dead child of the widow.

The most important tanna in the last decade of the Second Temple, and, after the destruction of Jerusalem, the founder and first president of the academy at Jabneh.

JOHANAN B. ZAKKAI

According to the theory formulated in the Mishnah (Ab. ii. 8), that traditions were handed down through an unbroken chain of scholars, Johanan, in receiving the teachings of Hillel and Shammai, formed the last link in that chain. But it is rather as a pupil of Hillel than of Shammai that he is known (Suk. 28a). Before his death Hillel is said to have prophetically designated Johanan, his youngest pupil, as "the father of wisdom" and "the father of coming generations" (Yer.

Judaism - Google Books. The Midrash. The MidrashHistory, Content, and Purpose of a Major Genre of Jewish Exegetical Texts We’ve all heard the phrase “it’s a midrash,” especially from folks giving a d’var Torah when they relate stories about figures in the Bible. The account of Abraham smashing the idols in his father’s idol shop is just such a story—it’s not in the Bible; it has no biblical basis, certainly no historical basis, and appears to be wholly made up. A modern version of this kind of tale is George Washington’s encounter with the cherry tree. So is that what midrashim are—tall tales? The answer, like most of the answers in Judaism is, well, it depends. Genesis Rabba.

In Judaism, the Midrash (/ˈmɪdrɑːʃ/;[1] Hebrew: מדרש‎; plural midrashim) is the body of exegesis of Torah texts along with homiletic stories as taught by Chazal (Rabbinical Jewish sages of the post-Temple era) that provide an intrinsic analysis to passages in the Tanakh. Midrash is a method of interpreting biblical stories that goes beyond simple distillation of religious, legal, or moral teachings. Midrash Rabba. Midrash Rabba or Midrash Rabbah can refer to part of or the collective whole of aggadic midrashim on the books of the Tanach, generally having the term "Rabbah" (רבה), meaning "great," as part of their name.

These midrashim are as follows: The designation "Rabbah" was first applied to the midrash to Genesis, and then applied to the midrashim to the other books of the Pentateuch, as Wayiḳra Rabbah, Shemot Rabbah, etc., which were copied, with Bereshit Rabbah, even in (later) manuscripts. This collection eventually came to be called "Midrash Rabbot" (i.e., "Midrash of the Rabbot"), to which the midrashim most in use during divine service—to Canticles, Book of Ruth, Book of Esther, Lamentations, and Ecclesiastes—were subsequently added.
