The book explores the irregular compositions found in key Jewish texts such as the Mishnah and Tosefta, as well as Midrashim and Genesis Rabbah. Neusner critically examines the structural consistency of these texts, particularly focusing on a chapter from the Bavli. He reveals that certain documents diverge from established rhetorical, topical, and logical norms, challenging the conventional understanding of these ancient writings.
