OVERVIEW
The Yalkut Shimoni is a compilation of rabbinical interpretations of the entire Hebrew Bible. The criteria for selecting the interpretations are not fully understood, nor whether the book was conceived as a comprehensive reference work for exegesis to link with the Biblical interpretation in the Talmud and Midrash, or for reforming the rabbinical tradition of interpretation. Translating this work is a first step toward answering these questions.
