Land and Temple - Field Sacralization and the Agrarian Priesthood of Second Temple Judaism (Hardcover): Benjamin D. Gordon Land and Temple - Field Sacralization and the Agrarian Priesthood of Second Temple Judaism (Hardcover)
Benjamin D. Gordon
R3,073 Discovery Miles 30 730 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This exploration of the Judean priesthood's role in agricultural cultivation demonstrates that the institutional reach of Second Temple Judaism (516 BCE-70 CE) went far beyond the confines of its houses of worship, while exposing an unfamiliar aspect of sacred place-making in the ancient Jewish experience. Temples of the ancient world regularly held assets in land, often naming a patron deity as landowner and affording the land sanctity protections. Such arrangements can provide essential background to the Hebrew Bible's assertion that God is the owner of the land of Israel. They can also shed light on references in early Jewish literature to the sacred landholdings of the priesthood or the temple.
