Kl.-8°, Brosch. XIV, 291 S., mit 15 Farbabb. u. 2 farb. Karten auf Taf. Neuwertiges Ex. / Fine Copy // Rabbi Jehuda der Fürst (ha-Nassi) leitete um die Wende vom 2. zum 3. Jahrhundert n.Chr. die Einrichtungen der jüdischen Selbstverwaltung im Land Israel. Er macht seinem Amt alle Ehre: er war ein begnadeter Gelehrter, eine königliche, ja messianische Gestalt, dabei auch mit irdischen Gütern gesegnet, ein Staatsmann, der mit der römischen Obrigkeit auf gutem Fuße stand. Seine Verordnungen standen auf der Höhe der Zeit, bis hin zu Bemühungen, die Ausübung biblischer Gebote den Umständen anzupassen, womöglich gar auszusetzen. Ein solcher Versuch war die Aufhebung des Brachjahrs, wonach das Land alle sieben Jahre ruhen sollte (Lev 25,2), was für eine landwirtschaftlich geprägte Gesellschaft unter Fremdherrschaft eine schwere Einschränkung bedeutete; wegen des Widerstands seiner Kollegen konnte er diese Anordnung nicht durchsetzen, ebenso wenig wie die Aufhebung des Fastens am 9. Aw, dem Tag der Tempelzerstörung, das in seinen Augen nicht mehr zeitgemäß war. Mit seiner liberalen Haltung und seinen humanen Entscheidungen war Rabbi Jehuda der Fürst seiner Zeit weit voraus. Er brachte das Corpus der Mischna zu einem redaktionellen Abschluss, wodurch er dem jüdischen Volk ein Werk hinterließ, das an Bedeutung nur der Tora nachsteht; allerdings bedeutete die Fixierung dieses Corpus einen gewissen Stillstand für die Entwicklung der mündlichen Lehre. Aharon Oppenheimer verfolgt den Weg dieser mächtigen Persönlichkeit und sucht, ihre Bedeutung und bleibende Wirkung nachzuzeichnen. ISBN: 9783161506857 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 276.

Tübingen, Mohr Siebeck, 2005. 514 pp. Fine copy. Hardcover with dustjacket. includes over thirty papers by Aharon Oppenheimer about Jewish life in Palestine and Babylonia in the period of the Mishnah and the Talmud (1st-4th centuries), dealing with leadership and society, political and military activity, relations with the authorities and historical geography.The collection is organized around three inter-connected themes: 1 Roman Palestine and its Environs; 2 The Bar Kokhba Revolt; 3 Babylonia Judaica. About two-thirds of the papers were originally published in Hebrew. They have been selected and edited for this collection, and translated for the first time into English or German. The rest of the papers originally appeared in various different languages and contexts, and they too have been selected and edited to fit the three themes. Cross-references have been added, as well as detailed indices. The aim of the papers is to cast light on Jewish history by extracting methodically historical meaning from Talmudic sources, taking into account when they were written, where they were edited, and how far they can be presumed authentic; and by looking at them in combination with Greek, Roman, Persian and Arabic written sources as well as relevant archaeological finds.
