Volume 17 of The Jewish Law Annual adds to the growing list of
articles on Jewish law that have been published in volumes 1-16 of
this series, providing English-speaking readers with scholarly
articles presenting jurisprudential, historical, textual and
comparative analysis of issues in Jewish law. The volume contains
seven articles diverse in their scope and focus. Two articles are
devoted to the halakhic thought of Rabbi A. I Kook; two treat
classic legal questions: breach of a promise to marry, and the
legal capacity of minors; two examine aspects of the judicial
process, one exploring talmudic analyses of the biblical
requirement that courts be established in every town, and the
other, post-talmudic views on judicial authority in cases suspected
of fraudulent claims. Another article addresses the fascinating
question of the epistemic-pedagogic worldviews of the rival
Tannaitic legal academics, the House of Hillel and the House of
Shammai. The volume concludes with a section on Israeli legislation
that adduces or is informed by Jewish law, and two reviews of a
much-discussed recent book on a topic of considerable contemporary
interest: the agunah problem.
