Summary
Joachim Schaper presents a history of the post-exilic Judaean priesthood that is characterized by its openness for innovative approaches and its inter-disciplinary outlook. It situates priests and Levites in their cultural and social world in the Judah of the Persian period. Joachim Schaper applies insights won by historians and sociologists to a crucial aspect of the history of post-exilic Judah; his approach is inspired by the works of scholars such as Max Weber and Marc Bloch.
