| Zusammenfassung: | The locus classicus for rabbinic authority in the Babylonian Talmud is the story of the oven of Akhnai (b.B.Meṣ. 59a—b). The current essay offers new insight into how this story operates, and, more importantly, into what issues it elides, by approaching it through a close reading of the story of Rav and the herders (b.Sanh. 5a—b) and its intertexts. The story of Rav and the herders constructs rabbinic expertise on the interface of two dialogical spheres, only one of which is engaged by the oven story: first, relationships among Rabbis, and second, relationships between Rabbis and other professional groups. The last part of the essay moves beyond the story of Rav and the herders to survey, and tentatively classify, interactions among Rabbis and professionals in the Bavli. |
