Beautiful and uncomfortable. Even the reader will want something
they're not supposed to. When Justin hires Leah to work for him
after school, their interactions quickly shift from guarded and
awkward to a mutual quest for knowledge of each other. Caught up in
his inexplicable fascination with Leah, Justin finds himself
engineering time for them to be alone. Leah isn't sure what it is
she is drawn to the most, Justin and everything about him, or the
amount of attention he gives her. Both are addictive. Leah appears
to be mature beyond her years and unaffected by the possibilities
her unique relationship brings. However, a series of incidents and
revelations will tip her over the edge of what she can handle.
The Dictionary of Early Judaism is the first reference work devoted
exclusively to Second Temple Judaism (fourth century b.c.e. through
second century c.e.).
The first section of this substantive and incredible work contains
thirteen major essays that attempt to synthesize major aspects of
Judaism in the period between Alexander and Hadrian. The second and
significantly longer section offers 520 entries arranged
alphabetically. Many of these entries have cross-references and all
have select bibliographies. Equal attention is given to literary
and nonliterary (i.e. archaeological and epigraphic) evidence and
New Testament writings are included as evidence for Judaism in the
first century c.e. Several entries also give pertinent information
on the Hebrew Bible.
The Dictionary of Early Judaism is intended to not only meet the
needs of scholars and students at which it succeeds admirably but
also to provide accessible information for the general reader. It
is ecumenical and international in character, bringing together
nearly 270 authors from as many as twenty countries and including
Jews, Christians, and scholars of no religious affiliation.
Culled from The Eerdmans Dictionary of Early Judaism, a monumental,
groundbreaking reference work published in late 2010, Early
Judaism: A Comprehensive Overview contains fifteen first-rate
essays from a diverse group of internationally renowned scholars.
This volume provides the most comprehensive and authoritative
overview available of Judaism in the Hellenistic and early Roman
periods. Contributors John M. G. BarclayMiriam Pucci Ben ZeevKatell
