| Summary: | This article shows how Nachmanides' commentary to the Torah, which is primarily a functional text, was also composed as an artistic literary text. It demonstrates Nachmanides' extensive use of rhetorical means that contain an element of repetition: of sound, root and content. His diverse repetitive means are not only an artistic embellishment that imparts special beauty to his writings, but also serve as a useful device in highlighting central ideas in his interpretive and philosophical doctrine. |
