Abstract

* This paper has its origin in honors courses in Early Jewish Biblical Interpretation at Yeshiva College and Stern College for Women of Yeshiva University. After we had studied a good deal of the comparative exegesis of the Aqedah, my students and I noticed that angels kept appearing. My thanks to all of those undergraduates who helped start this work on its way. After the oral presentation of this paper at a session on ÒAngels in Second Temple and Talmudic LiteratureÓ at the 31st Annual Meeting of the Association for Jewish Studies in Chicago in December 1999, a number of col- leagues, from near and far, drew my attention to a range of secondary sources which were germane to my topic. I thank, in particular, Dr I. Kalimi for referring me to L. Kundert, Die Opferung/ Bindung Isaaks. Bd. 1: Gen 22,1-19 im Alten Testament, im FrŸhjudentum und in Neuen Testament and Bd . 2: Gen 22:1-19 im frŸhen rabbinischen Texten (WMANT 78-79; Neukirchen-Vluyn ; Neukirchener Verlag, 1998), and Dr Y. Eliav for D. Lerch, Isaaks Opferung christlich gedeutet: Eine auslegungsges chichtliche Untersu- chung (TŸbingen: J.C.B.
