Composed: Talmudic Israel/Babylon, 200 CE
Sifrei Devarim is a halakhic (legal) midrash on the Book of Deuteronomy. Though its main portion is halakhic and from the school of Rabbi Akiva, it opens and concludes with significant aggadic (narrative) sections that resemble the style of the school of Rabbi Yishmael.
