“米德拉什”(Midrash,希伯来语音译),意为“解释”、“阐述”。《米德拉什》是犹太教中解释、讲解《塔纳赫》(《圣经·旧约》)的布道书卷。2世纪时已有雏形,6～10世纪全部成书。全书按《塔纳赫》各卷的顺序编定,对之进行通俗的解释与阐述,分别称为该卷的“米德拉什”,但每篇可有单独名称,如:“《出埃及记》的米德拉什”等。
《米德拉什》的内容分为两种:一为《哈拉哈》(Halachah,希伯来语音译),意为“规则”,讲解经文中的律法、教义、礼仪与行为规范,说明律法如何应用在现实生活中,具有较高的权威性,文体庄重严谨。二为《阿嘎达》(Aggadah,希伯来语音译,曾被误译为“哈加达”),意为“宣讲”,由犹太教拉比讲解的《塔纳赫》中的各种传奇、逸事、历史、民俗故事和叙述性的布道两部分组成,口传下来构成《米德拉什》的一部分。《阿嘎达》的基本内容约在2世纪固定下来,最早的单行本出现于8世纪。《阿嘎达》已成为保持犹太教传统的一个文化读本,也是向犹太儿童进行犹太史教育的一个课本。其体裁大都为宗教诗文、寓言和民间故事,属于拉比文学。例如:《塔纳赫》中关于亚伯拉罕童年的记载很少,犹太教士讲解《塔纳赫》时,经常穿插一些关于亚伯拉罕早年的传奇故事,这些故事被称为“阿嘎达”。“阿嘎达”惯用比喻或诗意风格,主张让人欢娱,舒展身心,驱散疲乏。其内容的阐释并不被认为是互相排斥的,同一句话可以被认为具有各种各样的、甚至互不相容的阐释。它们可以同时存在,不必从中作出任何抉择,因为人的拯救并不依赖于这个结果。对于犹太人来说,重要的事情是人们如何行动,而不是如何信仰。在犹太教会堂里的祈祷词有些出自《阿嘎达》,有些犹太教礼仪也出自《阿嘎达》。在《巴比伦塔木德》中30%的内容出自《阿嘎达》。
《米德拉什》是一部恢弘的、各种成分混杂的文献,在时间上覆盖了若干个世纪,在内容上则来源于庞杂的资料,其中有些是属于中世纪的。在《米德拉什》中,拉比们将新的观念引进犹太教中,并声称他们只是揭示那些早已存在于经卷中之物。如:灵魂的观念没有在《塔纳赫》中发现,但是却出现在《米德拉什》中。上帝被谈到和被接受的方式也改变了,在早期《塔纳赫》的叙述中,上帝是在戏剧性的情景中向犹太先祖和摩西显现。如:在燃烧的荆棘中或冒烟的山上。以后先知们被天使拜访,或他们有时听到体内发出神对他们讲话的声音。在《米德拉什》中,上帝则以更为超越、很少拟人的方式出现。出现在这个世界和人类中的这位上帝被称为“舍金纳”(Shekhinah)。他在创世时,为把忠诚、慈善和仁爱的行为带给人类而来到地球上,但是由于人类的恶行,他又撤回天上,因为地球上已没有他居住之地。《米德拉什》有时把受舍金纳之爱的保护描绘为一个闪闪发光的带翅膀之物。《米德拉什》对于人们了解犹太教有重要的价值,它是犹太教的通俗性典籍。信奉犹太教家庭的孩子从小就要学习《米德拉什》。

Midrash (/?m?drɑ??/; Hebrew: ????????; pl. ??????????? midrashim or ??????????? midrashot) is expansive Jewish Biblical exegesis using a rabbinic mode of interpretation prominent in the Talmud. The word itself means "textual interpretation", "study", or "exegesis", derived from the root verb darash (????????), which means "resort to, seek, seek with care, enquire, require", forms of which appear frequently in the Hebrew Bible.
Midrash and rabbinic readings "discern value in texts, words, and letters, as potential revelatory spaces", writes the Hebrew scholar Wilda Gafney. "They reimagine dominant narratival readings while crafting new ones to stand alongside—not replace—former readings. Midrash also asks questions of the text; sometimes it provides answers, sometimes it leaves the reader to answer the questions". Vanessa Lovelace defines midrash as "a Jewish mode of interpretation that not only engages the words of the text, behind the text, and beyond the text, but also focuses on each letter, and the words left unsaid by each line".

The term is also used of a rabbinic work that interprets Scripture in that manner. Such works contain early interpretations and commentaries on the Written Torah and Oral Torah (spoken law and sermons), as well as non-legalistic rabbinic literature (aggadah) and occasionally Jewish religious laws (halakha), which usually form a running commentary on specific passages in the Hebrew Scripture (Tanakh).

The word Midrash, especially if capitalized, can refer to a specific compilation of these rabbinic writings composed between 400 and 1200 CE. According to Gary Porton and Jacob Neusner, midrash has three technical meanings:

Judaic biblical interpretation;
the method used in interpreting;
a collection of such interpretations.

etymology
The Hebrew word midrash is derived from the root of the verb darash (???????), which means "resort to, seek, seek with care, enquire, require", forms of which appear frequently in the Bible.

The word midrash occurs twice in the Hebrew Bible: 2 Chronicles 13:22 "in the midrash of the prophet Iddo", and 24:27 "in the midrash of the book of the kings". Both the King James Version (KJV) and English Standard Version (ESV) translate the word as "story" in both instances; the Septuagint translates it as βιβλ?ον (book) in the first, as γραφ? (writing) in the second. The meaning of the Hebrew word in these contexts is uncertain: it has been interpreted as referring to "a body of authoritative narratives, or interpretations thereof, concerning historically important figures" and seems to refer to a "book", perhaps even a "book of interpretation", which might make its use a foreshadowing of the technical sense that the rabbis later gave to the word.

Since the early Middle Ages the function of much of midrashic interpretation has been distinguished from that of peshat, straight or direct interpretation aiming at the original literal meaning of a scriptural text.

as a genre
A definition of "midrash" repeatedly quoted by other scholars is that given by Gary G. Porton in 1981: "a type of literature, oral or written, which stands in direct relationship to a fixed, canonical text, considered to be the authoritative and revealed word of God by the midrashist and his audience, and in which this canonical text is explicitly cited or clearly alluded to".

Lieve M. Teugels, who would limit midrash to rabbinic literature, offered a definition of midrash as "rabbinic interpretation of Scripture that bears the lemmatic form", a definition that, unlike Porton's, has not been adopted by others. While some scholars agree with the limitation of the term "midrash" to rabbinic writings, others apply it also to certain Qumran writings, to parts of the New Testament, and of the Hebrew Bible (in particular the superscriptions of the Psalms, Deuteronomy, and Chronicles), and even modern compositions are called midrashim.

as method
Midrash is now viewed more as method than genre, although the rabbinic midrashim do constitute a distinct literary genre.
According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, "Midrash was initially a philological method of interpreting the literal meaning of biblical texts. In time it developed into a sophisticated interpretive system that reconciled apparent biblical contradictions, established the scriptural basis of new laws, and enriched biblical content with new meaning. Midrashic creativity reached its peak in the schools of Rabbi Ishmael and Akiba, where two different hermeneutic methods were applied. The first was primarily logically oriented, making inferences based upon similarity of content and analogy. The second rested largely upon textual scrutiny, assuming that words and letters that seem superfluous teach something not openly stated in the text."

Many different exegetical methods are employed to derive deeper meaning from a text. This is not limited to the traditional thirteen textual tools attributed to the Tanna Rabbi Ishmael, which are used in the interpretation of halakha (Jewish law). The presence of words or letters which are seen to be apparently superfluous, and the chronology of events, parallel narratives or what are seen as other textual "anomalies" are often used as a springboard for interpretation of segments of Biblical text. In many cases, a handful of lines in the Biblical narrative may become a long philosophical discussion

Jacob Neusner distinguishes three midrash processes:

paraphrase: recounting the content of the biblical text in different language that may change the sense;
prophecy: reading the text as an account of something happening or about to happen in the interpreter's time;
parable or allegory: indicating deeper meanings of the words of the text as speaking of something other than the superficial meaning of the words or of everyday reality, as when the love of man and woman in the Song of Songs is interpreted as referring to the love between God and Israel or the Church as in Isaiah 5 and in the New Testament.

Jewish midrashic literature
Numerous Jewish midrashim previously preserved in manuscript form have been published in print, including those denominated as smaller or minor midrashim. Bernard H. Mehlman and Seth M. Limmer deprecate this usage claiming that the term "minor" seems judgmental and "small" is inappropriate for midrashim some of which are lengthy. They propose instead the term "medieval midrashim", since the period of their production extended from the twilight of the rabbinic age to the dawn of the Age of Enlightenment.

Generally speaking, rabbinic midrashim either focus on religious law and practice (halakha) or interpret biblical narrative in relation to non-legal ethics or theology, creating homilies and parables based on the text. In the latter case they are described as aggadic.

Halakhic midrashim
Midrash halakha is the name given to a group of tannaitic expositions on the first five books of the Hebrew Bible. These midrashim, written in Mishnahic Hebrew, clearly distinguish between the Biblical texts that they discuss, and the rabbinic interpretation of that text. They often go well beyond simple interpretation and derive or provide support for halakha. This work is based on pre-set assumptions about the sacred and divine nature of the text, and the belief in the legitimacy that accords with rabbinic interpretation.

Although this material treats the biblical texts as the authoritative word of God, it is clear that not all of the Hebrew Bible was fixed in its wording at this time, as some verses that are cited differ from the Masoretic, and accord with the Septuagint, or Samaritan Torah instead.

origins
With the growing canonization of the contents of the Hebrew Bible, both in terms of the books that it contained, and the version of the text in them, and an acceptance that new texts could not be added, there came a need to produce material that would clearly differentiate between that text, and rabbinic interpretation of it. By collecting and compiling these thoughts they could be presented in a manner which helped to refute claims that they were only human interpretations -- the argument being that, by presenting the various collections of different schools of thought, each of which relied upon close study of the text, the growing difference between early biblical law and its later rabbinic interpretation could be reconciled.

aggadic midrashimMidrashim that seek to explain the non-legal portions of the Hebrew Bible are sometimes referred to as aggadah or Haggadah.Aggadic discussions of the non-legal parts of Scripture are characterized by a much greater freedom of exposition than the halakhic midrashim (midrashim on Jewish law). Aggadic expositors availed themselves of various techniques, including sayings of prominent rabbis. These aggadic explanations could be philosophical or mystical disquisitions concerning angels, demons, paradise, hell, the messiah, Satan, feasts and fasts, parables, legends, satirical assaults on those who practice idolatry, etc.Some of these midrashim entail mystical teachings. The presentation is such that the midrash is a simple lesson to the uninitiated, and a direct allusion, or analogy, to a mystical teaching for those educated in this area.An example of a midrashic interpretation:

Contemporary Jewish midrash
A wealth of literature and artwork has been created in the 20th and 21st centuries by people aspiring to create "contemporary midrash". Forms include poetry, prose, Bibliodrama (the acting out of Bible stories), murals, masks, and music, among others. The Institute for Contemporary Midrash was formed to facilitate these reinterpretations of sacred texts. The institute hosted several week-long intensives between 1995 and 2004, and published eight issues of Living Text: The Journal of Contemporary Midrash from 1997 to 2000.

Contemporary views
According to Carol Bakhos, recent studies that use literary-critical tools to concentrate on the cultural and literary aspects of midrash have led to a rediscovery of the importance of these texts for finding insights into the rabbinic culture that created them. Midrash is increasingly seen as a literary and cultural construction, responsive to literary means of analysis.

Frank Kermode has written that midrash is an imaginative way of "updating, enhancing, augmenting, explaining, and justifying the sacred text". Because the Tanakh came to be seen as unintelligible or even offensive, midrash could be used as a means of rewriting it in a way that both makes it more acceptable to later ethical standards and conforms more to later notions of plausibility.

James L. Kugel, in The Bible as It Was (Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press, 1997), examines a number of early Jewish and Christian texts that comment on, expand, or re-interpret passages from the first five books of the Tanakh between the third century BCE and the second century CE.

Kugel traces how and why biblical interpreters produced new meanings by the use of exegesis on ambiguities, syntactical details, unusual or awkward vocabulary, repetitions, etc. in the text. As an example, Kugel examines the different ways in which the biblical story that God's instructions are not to be found in heaven (Deuteronomy 30:12) has been interpreted. Baruch 3:29-4:1 states that this means that divine wisdom is not available anywhere other than in the Torah. Targum Neophyti (Deuteronomy 30:12) and b. Baba Metzia 59b claim that this text means that Torah is no longer hidden away, but has been given to humans who are then responsible for following it.
