Description:
In the second century A.D., Galilee fostered the formation of rabbinic Judaism. The society that flourished there has laid its mark on Judaism ever since, and it is a society that can be fully described through a large corpus of rabbinic writings.
This is an examination of Jewish society and administration in Galilee in the time between the Bar Kokhba war and the proclamation of universal Roman citizenship in CE 212. It offers an overview of the customs and structure of a village society, and the rabbinical authority.
