The destruction of the First Temple (586 B.C.E.), destruction of
the Second Temple (70 C.E.), and the defeat of the Bar Kokhba
(132-135 C.E.) are discussed in great detail in the covenantal
theology of the Torah and Scripture. In this new work, Jacob
Neusner uses extensive textual evidence to explore the importance
of the second temple's destruction and the aforementioned events in
the creation of Rabbinic Judaism. Neusner ultimately proposes that
the destruction of the second temple merely reinforced the existing
theological system, which posed the following choice: keep the
Torah and prosper, or rebel against the Torah and suffer God's
wrath. This detailed analysis is an important new exploration into
the foundations of Rabbinic Judaism.
