Execution and Invention: Death Penalty Discourse in Early Rabbinic and Christian Cultures
Berkowitz, Beth A. (Assistant Professor, Assistant Professor, Jewish Theological Seminary)
The death penalty in classical Judaism has been a highly politicized subject in modern scholarship. This book tells the story of modern scholarship on the ancient rabbinic death penalty and continues the story by offering a different perspective using the approaches of ritual studies, cultural criticism, and Talmudic source criticism.
