What is the tree of life in Proverbs 11:30? @JonEricson, the no-synonyms thing he's famous for refers to words, like כֶּבֶשׂ, keves, and כֶּשֶׂב, kesev, both of which mean "sheep", which he distinguishes between. I don't think it refers to different meanings (or referents) of the same word, like etz chayim ("tree of life") here. |

What is the tree of life in Proverbs 11:30? This answer doesn't cite a source, but whoever it is is showing his prejudices: Obviously, it's ludicrous to ascribe an interpretation abut Jesus to a verse of Tanakh, unless one is starting from Christian postulates. |

What is “Midrash” and how does it relate to Christian principles of hermeneutics? There are halachic and aggadic midrashim. Aggadic ones are the ones you mention in this answer. Halachic ones, such as many in Toras Kohanim, derive halachos from the verses using the same tools of exegesis found in the Babylonian Talmud, and are indeed used by later halachic works as sources of practical halacha. |
