Abstract:
Abstract This article analyzes the reception of the Bible in a group of midrashim called amoraic midrash, or aggadic midrash, which reveal the centrality of Scripture in the world of the rabbis. Each midrash is organized around a particular biblical book and its verses, bringing a collection of interpretations taught by different rabbis in the land of Israel in the first five centuries of the Common Era. These compositions were redacted towards the end of the Amoraic Period and immediately after and are therefore referred to as midrashei amoraim. The title midrashei aggadah reflects their content, with almost no interpretations dealing with halakhic issues. In this article, I explain the unique fashion in which midrashei aggadah function as a mode of biblical interpretation, the creative ways biblical verses were employed by the rabbis, and the conception of the Bible’s unity evidenced in their midrashim. I then present the main role of biblical verses as an organizing principle in two genres of midrashic compositions. I conclude with the question of the link between midrashei amoraim and the world of the synagogue. Do these midrashim teach us about biblical reception and interpretation solely among the intellectual elite or also among the general public?

Abstract:
The tannaitic legal Midrashim did not all survive and are not all known to us in a complete independent form. David Zvi Hoffman was one of the first scholars to recognize the 13th century Yemenite Midrash, Midrash haGadol, written by R. David of Aden, as a major source of the lost legal Midarshim. He published the Midrash Tannaim, containing all of the tannaitic looking paragraphs from Midrash haGadol on the book of Deuteronomy. However, the author of Midrash haGadol often introduced changes into the material he borrowed from rabbinic and medieval sources. The resulting passages often seem to be unparalleled tannaitic sources, when in fact they are not. This article proposes a re-examination of the Mekhilta material as found in the Midrash haGadol, in order to reconstruct more accurately the tannaitic text. We propose a methodology for contending with this challenge, via a new approximate-matching algorithm designed to identify modified sources of this sort. Using this algorithm, we first compared Hoffman’s Midrash Tannaim on Deuteronomy to the Sifre, filtering out all parts of the text that are simply reworkings of the Sifre, despite many interpolations, omissions, and modified words. Having removed the Sifre passages from within the Midrash Tannaim text, we then proceeded to the next stage, in which we investigated the presence of reworked Maimonidean excerpts within the remaining text. The Maimonidean excerpts pose a particular challenge, because their reuse in the Midrash haGadol involves not only modifications and interpolations, but also changes of order. We describe the modifications that were necessary to the algorithm in order to handle these out-of-order cases of reuse as well. We have thus far succeeded in identifying and removing the reworked material appropriated from the Sifre and from Maimonides, and in the future we plan to tweak the algorithm such that it can successfully identify additional rabbinic passages as well, including the Babylonian and Palestinian Talmudic material, and other midrashic compilations. This will ultimately allow us to produce a final text approximating the original Mekhilta, to the greatest extent possible.

Abstract. Some scholars argue that Paul's writings—even after his conversion—still reflect his rabbinic training, in which the Jewish exegetical methods were widespread used. This article aims to investigate the degree of influence of the midrash as a Jewish exegetical method on Paul's use of the Old Testament (OT). It begins with a clear explanation of the definition and characteristics of midrash. Then, the author takes several examples of Paul's writings and words in the New Testament (NT) that show parallels with the midrash. Furthermore, the author also examines the factors that make Paul's use of the OT different from midrash in general. Technically, midrash's influence in Paul’s use of OT is undeniable. However, the greater influence lies in Paul's theological presupposition, that is Christ as the fulfillment of the OT.Abstrak. Sebagian ahli berpendapat bahwa tulisan Paulus—bahkan setelah pengalaman pertobatannya—masih mencerminkan pelatihan rabiniknya, yang di dalamnya metode eksegesis Yahudi bukan merupakan hal yang asing. Artikel ini ditujukan untuk menganalisis seberapa besar derajat pengaruh midrash sebagai metode eksegesis Yahudi terhadap penggunaan Perjanjian Lama (PL) oleh Paulus. Tulisan ini dimulai dengan pemaparan definisi dan karakteristik midrash yang jelas. Kemudian, penulis mengambil beberapa contoh tulisan maupun perkataan Paulus dalam Perjanjian Baru (NT) yang menunjukkan kesejajaran dengan midrash. Lebih lanjut, penulis juga meneliti faktor-faktor yang menjadikan penggunaan PL oleh Paulus berbeda dari midrash pada umumnya. Secara teknis, pengaruh midrash di dalam penggunaan PL Paulus memang tidak dapat disangkali. Namun, pengaruh yang lebih besar terletak pada prasuposisi teologis Paulus, yaitu Kristus sebagai penggenapan dari PL.

Abstract:
Abstract The Midrashim mentioned and described briefly in this article—R. Avraham ben Shlomo’s commentary on the early and later prophets, the Midrash Shoʿel U-Meshiv, and the anonymous Midrash on the Torah written at the beginning of the sixteenth century—represent the transitional stage between the classic and the later Yemenite Midrash. The former are written in a mixture of Hebrew and Arabic, based on rabbinic writings and on the teachings of great medieval scholars such as R. Saadia Gaon and Maimonides, while the latter are written almost solely in Hebrew and based mainly on esoteric, symbolic, allegorical, and kabbalistic elements. Those written in the intermediate period between the old and the new combine all these characteristics.

Abstract:
Abstract In this article, I present a midrashic reference to one mishnah of tractate Avot that would appear to undermine its canonical status. A close reading of the midrash, will show that it makes use of various satirical tools, including exaggeration and ridicule, which appear to be aimed at a mocking of the mishnah. However, further reading of the midrash in light of a more comprehensive look at tractate Avot will show that contrary to this initial impression, the use of satire may not be directed at undermining the canonical status of Avot but rather at strengthening it. According to this reading, the satire is directed at internal criticism that the midrash identifies in the heart of the mishnaic text, with the result that Avot’s status is restored.

Abstract:
Abstract In this article I demonstrate how a careful reading of the text of Midrash Tehillim 22 reveals a clear distinction between its different developmental layers. While we do find the identification of particular verses with Esther in the early stages of the midrash’s development, there is no reason to assume that this identification was rooted in an anti-Christian polemic. On the other hand, in the later layers of the midrash, we find clear echoes of the systematic creation of a continuous exegesis that focuses on identifying the entire Psalm with Esther. The background for this trend was a polemical confrontation with the Christian interpretation which viewed the Psalm as a prefiguration for Jesus’s crucifixion. The midrash also serves as a Jewish counter to the Christian liturgy created in the wake of the Christological reading.

Abstract:
Abstract This article takes the narrative nature of parables seriously and looks at their role from this perspective. After theorizing the cognition- and cultural role of stories, four meshalim from the Tanhuma Midrashim are studied: ‘Grasshoppers in a jar’ (about the Tower of Babel), ‘Abraham’s circumcision’, ‘The baby on the table’ (about the sacrifice of Isaac), and ‘The calf and its mother’ (about Joseph and the Egyptian exile). The conclusion of this case study is that the role of meshalim is not to interpret the biblical text as such, but to change the audience’s attitude toward the biblical story. For this, the points of agreement between the mashal and the biblical story need only be minimal. In order to effectuate this new attitude, the meshalim in the Tanchuma Midrashim, which are usually based on earlier midrash on the said biblical text, adopt these existing midrashim while at the same time transforming them into new stories that are more suitable for the Tanchuma audience. Usually this amounts to a ‘softening’ of the message of the existing, earlier midrash.

Abstract:
The term Midrash should be reserved for the specific quotation literature of the rabbinic sources of classical Judaism. Decisive is its literary form: the combination of rabbinic statement and biblical quotation. All other rabbinic and non-rabbinic texts should better not be called Midrash. Great caution is needed in the use of the term exegesis in relation to Midrash. For the modern mind exegesis is something connected with critical philology and history. In principle Midrash is something completely different and could more aptly be called ‘a kind of theology’ than the usual designation as ‘a kind of exegesis’. In fact, the association of Midrash with exegesis implies a great injustice towards Midrash. Despite all appearances, Midrash is not exegesis, nor a ‘kind of exegesis’, although it does contain elements of biblical exegesis. Although Midrash has certainly played a role in the origin and history of modern biblical exegesis, this particular role is a matter of the past. The relation between Midrash and modern exegesis now has become merely platonic, a source of inspiration and, possibly, admiration as an example of textual sensitivity&&as a vehicle of rabbinic theology&&and – eventually – as a model for a new post-modern system of hermeneutics.

Abstract:
Abstract Although mentioned only twice in Genesis (19:17, 26), Lot’s wife has been a topic of much discussion amongst both traditional and modern commentators and exegetes. However, as opposed to the androcentric traditional midrash, the Jewish American women poets, who write midrashic-poetry, re-read the biblical story with a feminine/feminist lens, making what Alicia Ostriker calls ‘revisionist mythmaking.’ In this article, I shall focus on seven poems written from the 1980s through to 2014. I shall endeavor to evince the way(s) in which they make use of the biblical text, dealing with themes raised in the traditional midrash or re-reading the latter. I will show how by adducing to her emotions, longings and memories and even fear of the future, the poets portray Lot’s wife first and foremost as a woman.

Abstract:
In the articles gathered here, scholars of Hebrew revisit modern literary works and cultural documents through the prism of their continuing discourse with the Hebraic master narrative, the Bible. These scholars identify twin patterns in modern Hebrew texts: one is of embedding biblical prototypes, dramatic or semantic, in modern writings, while often questioning, challenging, and reversing the ancient models; the other is recreating and foregrounding specific biblical characters, scenes, or images, yet endowing them with a contemporary consciousness or placing them within the current cultural attitudes or mindset. Several contemporary scholars understand this two-pronged pattern, revolutionary and deconstructive as it might seem, within the time-hallowed tradition of midrash. Some find the midrashic mode helpful in interpreting such texts as well as in providing a methodological framework to the critical discourse. Thus, Gershon Shaked suggests in his article that all modern texts displaying this pattern may be viewed as modern midrashim.

Abstract:
Le midrash, sa forme et son contenu, propose a l'etude des mentalites les deux poles de l'economie du langage et de la representation divine. Sa source scripturaire enonce les conditions d'un monotheisme patriarcal a vocation genealogique et nominative, a l'encontre des polytheismes. A ce titre, il revele un savoir veritable sur l'inconscient freudien -sur le pulsionnel- sans le theoriser, avec le double role d'interiorisation des imperatifs et de detente psychique par rap- port a eux. Les modalites des performances orales cultuelles et interpretatives, les syntaxes d'amour divin dessinent un dieu d'idealisation autant que de subli- mation oedipienne, donnant l'espace d'une derivation, d'une amplification imagi- naires de la loi; tandis qu'a travers le traitement de moments d'enonciation ou d'enonces critiques, anxiogenes, comme les voeux intenables, il assume la verbali- sation et le desinvestissement de ce qui surgit au plan psychique de resistances, de formations, ou de parasitages automatiques
The misdrash, its form and substance, purpose in a psychologic investigation the two focal subjects of language and image of god. Its scriptuary source states the conditions for patriarchal monotheism, whose vocation is genealogical, throught the father's name, in opposition to polytheism. On this point, it displays a true knowledge on freudian unconscious (on the instincts) without theorization, and plays the double rule of interiorization of the imperatives and expression of the subjectivity. The conditions of oral performances of worship or interpretation, the shapes of divine love drow an ideal god more than an oedipian one, who gives space space for imaginary developpements; and when it deals with critical statements like vows impossible to keep, the midrash realizes the verbalization of the resistances, the deformations and the interferences that raise automatically from the unconscious

Abstract:
It is the intent of this project to show that Marilynne Robinson's novel Gilead might be profitably read within the context of the rabbinical exegetical tradition of midrash. It examines Gilead as a midrashic retelling of the Abraham story in the Bible, and shows how reading it in this light illuminates some of the key theological and social concerns at play in the novel. Midrash offers a unique model for reading Gilead because it combines elements of intertextuality, narrative theology and formal exegesis. Since midrash provides the framework for such a reading of Gilead, the first chapter discusses some of the theoretical issues surrounding the practice of midrash. The second chapter traces elements of the Abraham story from Genesis as retold in Gilead. Finally, the third chapter discusses the theological and social implications of reading Gilead as a midrashic retelling of the biblical story, thereby revealing Robinson's theology which emphasizes the holiness of the everyday.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines Rabbinic traditions regarding midrashic techniques, the authority of midrashic teachings and the purpose of midrashic activities. These traditions are investigated through an exhaustive analysis of Rabbinic exegesis of Deuteronomy 32:47. The Rabbis interpreted the initial clause of this verse ("for it is no empty thing for you") as referring to midrash and employed the verse to support a wide range of assertions about midrashic procedures. The techniques validated by the verse are interpretation of particles according to the hermeneutical principle of limitation and extension and narrative expansions that embellish biblical events. The idea of the Sinaitic authority of Rabbinic teachings is another aspect of midrash that finds expression through exegesis of Deuteronomy 32:47. Finally, the verse occurs in association with the concept of reward for derash. A study of the motives and attitudes that lay behind Rabbinic teachings will contribute to our understanding of midrashic literature.

Full text
Abstract:
Midrash (classic rabbinic interpretation of Hebrew Scripture) is taught alongside Scripture in Bible classes throughout the Jewish world in the primary school. Because Jewish tradition holds that rabbinic interpretation of Scripture should always be taught together with Scripture the teaching of midrash is viewed as part of the initiation of the student into Jewish sacred texts and into Jewish literacy. Traditionally children encounter midrash commentary when it is quoted or paraphrased by Rashi, Rabbi Solomon ben Isaac of the eleventh century, whose commentary on the Pentateuch is the most widely read. But since midrash is based on the theology ofthe ancient rabbis and was the rabbis' medium for conveying their understandings of Scripture, of God, of righteousness and man's place in this world to their followers, these texts are naturally complex and their content is often abstract. Current pedagogical practice does not address midrash as a discrete subject and does not, therefore, address these underlying characteristics of midrash. It has been my professional experience, as well as that of other Bible teachers, that a lack of explicit pedagogy for midrash can cause problems of understanding for the young student which may negatively influence her view of Scripture. This paper describes an educational innovation (for year six students) that was developed and tested by the author in the format of a design experiment. The strategy for teaching midrash explicitly builds upon academic scholarship on midrash content; on scholarship on the way that children form religious understandings and on scholarship that relates to the way that children make sense of texts. The research was conducted on an international scale, in one school each in Israel, England and the U.S. The findings reflect the challenges faced and the successes that were achieved in teaching midrash explicitly in the primary school.

Abstract:
Cette thèse a cherché à présenter une description des versions de Midrash Séder Eliyahou tout en se polarisant sur la recherche de la version authentique, aussi précise que possible. Cette étude interdisciplinaire tente d'allier les aspects paléographiques des manuscrits, la langue hébraïque ainsi que la littérature comparée. Le corpus de ce Midrash contient six éléments manuscrits. Seul le Codex, BAV, Vat. ebr. 31 est complet et en excellent état. Les trois éditions imprimées complètes, sont celles de : Venise (1598), première édition, copie d'un incunable, Prague (1677) et de Vienne (1901), l'édition critique de Friedman, basée sur BAV, Vat. ebr.31. Nous avons choisi ce dernier comme référent. Nous proposons l'hypothèse suivante : La fidélité est pas uniforme, il y a deux dimensions de fidélité, pouvant sembler contradictoires : paléographique et / ou exégétique. L'étude de sources de la Genizah génère deux cas de figure possibles : Il y aurait soit une seule famille du Midrash Séder Eliyahou, plus ou moins fidèles à la version de BAV, Vat. ebr. 31. Soit il existerait une autre version de SER, inconnue et divergente de celle de Vatican 31, générant une ou plusieurs autres familles de manuscrits. Si la seconde hypothèse se vérifie, il pourrait s'agir d'un Midrash en formation. La version occidentale est entièrement développée et fixée tandis que la version orientale aurait été transmise oralement sans avoir atteint sa forme définitive
This thesis has sought to present a description of the versions of Midrash Seder Eliyyahu while polarizing on the search for the authentic version, as accurate as possible. This interdisciplinary study tries to use the palaeographic aspects of the manuscripts, the Hebrew language as well as comparative literature. The corpus of this Midrash contains six manuscripts elements. Only the Codex BAV, Vat. ebr. 31 is complete and in excellent condition. The three printed editions complete, are those of: Venice (1598), first edition, copy of incunabula, Prague (1677) and Vienna (1901), the critical edition of Friedman, based on BAV, Vat. ebr.31. This manuscript version was chosen as a referent. We propose the following hypothesis: The fidelity is not uniform, there are two loyalty dimensions, may seem contradictory : paleographic or/and exegetical. The study of the sources from the Genizah generated two possible cases : There would be only one family of the Midrash Seder Eliyyahu, referring to the version of BAV, Vat. ebr. 31. Either exist another version of SER, unknown and divergent from the Vatican 31, which will form one or more other family of manuscripts. If this second assumption proves true, Seder Eliyyahu could be a processing Midrash. The Western version is fully developed and secured while the eastern version be transmitted orally and not having reached its final form

Abstract:
This chapter describes the phenomenon of storytelling as midrashic discourse in the Middle Ages. It connects Midrash to biblical exegesis, expositions of verses, and public study that are well known and accepted in one version or other since the beginning of the scholarly study of Midrash. Midrash is virtually unique in Jewish culture for its unbroken continuity from antiquity to the Middle Ages. In the Midrash's transition from the rabbinic period to later times, the genre was reinvigorated and developed in new and fascinating directions. The chapter also highlights Isaac Heinemann's book, ‘Darkhei ha'agadah’. In his book, Heinemann borrows the anthropological model of ‘organic thinking’, which in his view characterizes rabbinic interpretative mentality.

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the Midrash Rabbah. When Midrash Rabbah was first printed in the sixteenth century, ten midrashim of diverse chronological and geographical provenance were gathered together for the first time. Although these midrashim had circulated individually and in various combinations long before, there are no extant manuscripts of ‘Midrash Rabbah’ as a tenfold ‘anthology of midrashim’ on the Pentateuch and the Five Megillot. Rather, this composite volume was the product of two intense waves of publication of books of Midrash and aggadah that took place in the sixteenth century. These found focus first in Constantinople and then in Venice. The midrashim of Midrash Rabbah were published in both these cities, and were later reprinted in Kraków and Salonica.

Abstract:
This chapter talks about the reception of materials on Midrash and Targum. It discusses the rhetorical uses of the materials beyond the synagogue that are a matter of much cultural and historical significance. Accounts of the infiltration and penetration of midrashic forms and content into a host of New Testament texts attest to the ongoing and conditioning power of Midrash, as well as its capacity to undergird transformed legal and theological content. The chapter looks at fascinating instances where the recognition of midrashic argumentation and practice clarifies the New Testament source itself and even provides a witness to rabbinic topics before their midrashic redaction. It reviews the essence of Midrash and its all-inclusive definition that midrash springs from Scripture and is re-anchored in Scripture.

Abstract:
This chapter explains the simultaneous translation of scriptural lections that are recited in the synagogue into the Aramaic vernacular. It discusses scriptures that are variously infused by midrashic sources or legal and theological traditions that enter its warp and woof. From the notable variety of translations, the play of Midrash can be witnessed in different settings, and its oral mediation and diverse emphases. The chapter also describes the comparison of scriptures with the classical genres of midrashic material, which provides a striking glimpse into how the Midrash was filtered and re-presented in the synagogue. It illustrates the transformation which Scripture undergoes in midrashic operations, which is different from its targumic transformations.

Abstract:
This chapter assesses how the conception of time that informed the midrashic mindset reaches a crescendo in the homilies that were eventually included in what may be called the zoharic literature. In spite of the complexity of the history of the text, one can assert with relative confidence that the decisive redactional strategy was to organize the exegetical sermons as a commentary on the Pentateuch. Here it is apposite to recall Scholem's observation that the literary composition of the Zohar ‘outwardly imitates the form of the Midrash’. Not only did the zoharic authors draw freely from rabbinic midrashim, but structurally and rhetorically, the Zohar is essentially midrashic, and this extends from the earliest stratum. Rather than simply repeating the rabbinic dicta, the medieval kabbalists fabricated a more coherent narrative laid atop the biblical account, one that reflects a distinctive metaphysical scheme that renders the scriptural idiom symbolically based on the identification of the Torah and God.

Abstract:
Gas shale is the future hydrocarbon reservoir of Qatar. The Qatari geologic section has had important successions of gas shale at different geologic times including the Eocene Midra shale, the Cretaceous Ratawi and Nahr Umr, and the Paleozoic Qusaibah and Unayzah formations. Shale samples were collected from the outcrops of the Midra Shale in Dukhan and Umm Bab areas. Samples were subjected to geochemical analyses using XRD and RXF. Selected samples were examined under SEM and TEM microscopes. All the studied samples contain palygorskite as the main mineral and, in some cases, the only mineral present, as indicated by X-ray diffraction patterns. XRF analysis shows palygorskite range from ideal palygorskite (equal aluminum and magnesium content) to aluminous palygorskite where no magnesium is recorded. The most common other minor minerals are halite, quartz, calcite, and other clay minerals: illite, smectite and sepiolite. The palygorskite chain phyllo silicates results in a fibrous habit with channels running parallel to the fiber length. Images from Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) clearly show the presence of bundled lath-like crystals of palygorskite 5 to 20 nm in width and several micrometers in length. The Midra Shale was deposited in a shallow marine shelf that was subjected to clastic influx from the nearby land. Although, the Midra contains many elements that support deposition under marine conditions such as large foraminifera and shark teeth, the presence of fully developed shale horizons indicate a mixed marine-continental depositional setting. Most of the micropores are channels associated with the palygorskite laths as can be seen from the TEM images or some dissolution pores that resulted from halite and gypsum dissolution by meteoric water.

Abstract:
<p>NHNY Via Verde is a global model of sustainable housing development. Located in a Bronx brownfield, the 294,000 SF structure contains 222 residential units with 40,000 SF of green roofs and open space. Cascading buildings surrounding a central courtyard consists of a 21 story tower, 16- to 7-story midrise and 5 to 3-story low-rise. Interconnected, accessible green roofs provide continuous access from the courtyard to 12<span>th</span> level roof: the “via verde” or “green way”. Primary structure consists of cast-in-place concrete at the tower and concrete masonry bearing walls with precast concrete plank at mid- and low-rises. These conventional materials are arranged in unconventional ways to maximize efficiency, generating the architectural unit layout from optimal plank spans and eliminating façade bearing walls for prefabricated façades with sunshades and balconies. Secondary structural steel framing supports low rise storefronts, extensive roof PV panel arrays and a rainwater catchment system. Fly ash replacement was maximized in all concrete, and the time effect on strength gain was managed in construction. The large building volume required internal building separations with three independent structures engineered for drift compatibility. Foundation pile capacities vary to optimize efficiency to wide-ranging building heights.</p>

Abstract:
Abstract With recent advances in smart technologies, more and more smart devices are penetrating the residential and commercial buildings market. The introduction of these smart devices is also helping IoT companies emerge with load aggregator roles in the sector. With more utility companies on the track of supporting OpenADR protocols, the aggregators could play a significant role in providing load flexibilities by automatically responding to demand response (DR) events and coordinating load flexibility measures between customers. This would benefit utility companies by reducing stress on the grid during critical peak demand hours as well as customers by allowing them to utilize utility rate structures advantageous to those able to reduce electric usage during high-demand hours. This study evaluates cost and energy savings from adopting multiple load flexibility measures in multifamily buildings. Combinations of different load flexibility measures, including space temperature floating, light dimming, automatic window shading, and water heater temperature floating, are considered. The simulations are performed using OpenStudio®, an open-source U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) simulation platform. For the case study, we used a midrise apartment building with weather conditions from Denver, Colorado. To compare climate zone differences, simulations were also performed for Los Angeles, California, and Chicago, Illinois. Initial results indicate that the application of automated load flexibility measures without careful consideration of dispatching strategies and DR program enrollments could significantly affect the savings. To get meaningful cost savings, aggregators need to encourage tenant awareness to curtail energy usage through occupant behavior in addition to dispatching automatic load flexibility measures. The outcomes from this study are believed to help load aggregators understand the risks and benefits of load flexibility opportunities.

Abstract:
Introdução: A sífilis é uma doença infectocontagiosa muito prevalente no Brasil, sendo o seu rastreamento no pré-natal e no parto de extrema importância para prevenção da infecção congênita e suas sequelas na infância. Objetivo: Relatar caso de uma lactente de dois meses internada por pneumonia, evoluindo com dificuldade de abertura ocular, exotropia e midríase paralítica bilaterais. Métodos: Revisão de prontuário para relato de caso de caso de sífilis congênita com comprometimento neurológico. Resultados: Lactente internada por pneumonia no centro de tratamento intensivo pediátrico de hospital da rede pública da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Na transferência para a enfermaria, notaram-se alterações oculares, sendo diagnosticada paralisia do terceiro par craniano. A sorologia Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL) materno, coletada durante a internação da lactente, foi de 1:16. A mãe negou tratamento para sífilis antes ou durante a gestação, assim como rastreio no parto. Das outras sorologias relizadas da lactente, apenas a IgG para citomegalovírus foi positiva, com PCR na urina negativo. A análise liquórica mostrou: VDRL não reagente, hiperproteinorraquia e pleocitose. Exames de imagem do encéfalo e pares cranianos foram normais. Diante do quadro clínico, exames laboratoriais e de imagem, associados à história materna de sífilis não tratada, foi feito diagnóstico de neurossífilis congênita, com comprometimento de par craniano. Realizado o tratamento da lactente com 10 dias de penicilina cristalina intravenosa. A evolução foi satisfatória, com resolução das manifestações clínicas e laboratoriais. Conclusão: Destaca-se no relato uma apresentação rara da neurossífilis em lactente jovem. Alterações neurológicas como paralisia de pares cranianos podem ser manifestações clínicas precoces da sífilis congênita. Entretanto, essas costumam aparecer após o primeiro ano de vida.
