Joel Kaminsky is the Morningstar Professor of Jewish Studies and Professor of Religion at Smith College. His research often explores the intersection between narrative and theological currents in the Hebrew Bible and Rabbinic literature. Kaminsky’s work seeks to illuminate the overlapping but quite distinct ways that Jews and Christians over the past two millennia up to the present have interpreted the Hebrew Bible.
