1. I reserve the right to be miffed that my own contribution to the “nonessentialist” textbook literature on Judaism goes unmentioned in Satlow's pages. See my Early Judaism: Religious Worlds of the First Judaic Millennium, 2nd ed. (Bethesda: University Press of Maryland, 2006), 9–13, 263–66. I'm not sure that greater familiarity with my book would have improved his. But it would have been nice to have been acknowledged, perhaps, as “a flawed beginning to work more excellently achieved in my own.” After all, the first edition has been in classrooms since 1997, long enough for Satlow to have examined it.
