I'm reading Levy's The Dawn of Agriculture and the Earliest States in Genesis 1-11 and thought I'd share this screenshot. Really well written and researched book. Levy cites the midrash (fn77) from:

Pirqe Rebbe Eliezer, 24. [Heb], editio princeps, Constantinople, 1514. folio 16b. Digitized Copy, Hebrew Union College, Klau Library, in the Pirqe Rabbi Eliezer Manuscript Database.

    Good stuff cde, I've reallu only read Christian theology and have a bit of familiarity with Islamic. Do you have any suggestions for introductory works on Judaism? I always avoided it as it honestly seemed complicated and esoteric, though I always planned on engaging in some kind of scholarship.
