This volume takes advantage of the latest sociological perspectives
on sect formation and development and applies them to the study of
Early Judaism, providing fresh insights on early Jewish
sectarianism. The studies in this volume lay the groundwork for
further application of sociological models in the study of ancient
sects and are a timely contribution to social-scientific research
in biblical studies, an increasingly important discipline in the
field. This book presents eight new and path-breaking studies which
explore the phenomenon of sects in ancient Judaism and the history
of sociological theorizing of sectarian movements. Contributors
draw on a full range of classical and contemporary sources in the
sociology religion including the work of Max Weber, Ernest
Troeltsch, Bryan Wilson, Stark and Bainbridge, Mary Douglas.
