Between Cooperation and Hostility

Multiple Identities in Ancient Judaism and the Interaction with Foreign Powers. Edited by Rainer Albertz and Jakob Wöhrle.

The volume intends to show, from the perspectives of Hebrew Bible, Judaic, and Ancient History Studies, that the contrasting Jewish attitudes towards foreign powers were not only dependent on specific political circumstances. They were also interrelated with the emergence of multiple early Jewish identities, which all found a basis in the Torah, the prophets, or the psalms. With 12 contributions by Daniel R. Schwartz, Thomas Römer, Jakob Wöhrle et al. 280 Seiten mit 16 Abb., gebunden (Journal of Ancient Judaism. Supplements; Vol. 11/Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht 2013) leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear
