The legal material of the Pentateuch has received new interest with detailed studies of specific biblical passages. The comparison of biblical practice to ancient Near Eastern customs has received a new impetus with the concentration on texts from actual ancient legal transactions. 0The Oxford Handbook of Biblical Law provides a state of the art analysis of the major questions, principles, and texts pertinent to biblical law. The thirty-three chapters, written by an international team of experts, deal with the concepts, significant texts, institutions, and procedures of biblical law; the intersection of law with religion, socio-economic circumstances, and politics; and the reinterpretation of biblical law in the emerging Jewish and Christian communities. The volume is intended to introduce non-specialists to the field as well as to stimulate new thinking among scholars working in biblical law. 650 0 Jewish law. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85070287 650 7 Jewish law. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00982801 700 1 Barmash, Pamela, |d1966- |eeditor. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2004089516 830 0 Oxford handbooks 902 kl |bs |6a |7m |dv |f1 |e20200310 904 pad |bo |hm |cb |e20200214 910 |cG0601mon 914 (OCoLC)on1098794886 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240703 |eprocessed |f1098794886 980 |i150.00 |j123.00 |n40029673110 982 |bFY20 |n2020 |q32101108228303 986 |hBM520.2 |i.O94 2019
