Summary
The articles collected here offer a new interdisciplinary approach to ancient Jewish and non-Jewish legal traditions. Based on a combination of literary and documentary evidence, they investigate the multicultural context in which ancient legal traditions and corpora developed and help to understand legal development on the background of the social, economic, and political situation in Roman Palestine and Babylonia.
