Lev. Rab. is fundamentally homiletic, and drawn from actual synagogue material, but not transcribed materiel from the synagogue.

Q
Intervention: R Sarasohn
A
Goes beyond Heinemann to argue that the petihot in Lev. Rab are all artificial, and not the product of sermons. Can’t know anything about oral exegesis.

Q
Intervention Visotsky
A
Argues that LR and PRK are not homilies, and that the usage of proems does not indicate that they are. Shows that the word patah is used very infrequently. Rather, they correspond to the Greek terms proem and soma of historians.
