Genizah Studies in Memory of Doctor Solomon Schechter, Vol. I: Midrash and Haggadah by Louis Ginzberg

The Jewish Theological Seminary of America, New York 1928, 549, XVII pp.

“The midrashic material in the book may be divided into two classes, one, the fragments of hitherto unknown Midrashim, and two, fragments of new versions of Midrashim already known. Among the fragments of the first group the numbers VIII, XVII, XXVI and XXVII deserve our special attention… Important and interesting as is the first group of fragments perhaps the second group is of even greater importance. Many of the questions hitherto most mooted in the history of the Midrash will now find a solution or will at least approach a solution thanks to the new light shed upon them by these unknown versions of the Midrashim.”
