Land and Economy in Ancient Palestine is a study of the economic
crises throughout the Second Temple Period. It establishes that the
single factor of the economy which united all aspects of life in
ancient society was land.
Through study of a wide variety of sources, including the New
Testament and classical authors, Jack Pastor looks at who owned
land, and how they came to possess it. He examines the various
ramifications of landownership in ancient society to ascertain its
effect on livelihoods, government policies and revenues. A special
emphasis is placed on debt and famine as social and economic
problems with ties to the landholding structure.
