Descrizione Rabbis and Classical Rhetoric
Training in rhetoric formed the basis of education in the Roman Empire, even as philosophers like Plato derided it as worthless trickery. The Talmudic rabbis, as a minority in the Greek East, chart a novel approach through this dialectic that engages Greco-Roman rhetoric to recreate the pristine Sinaitic prophetic experience.
