Jewish Law in Transition: How Economic Forces Overcame the Prohibition Against Lending on Interest
Hillel Gamoran
A well-known biblical prohibition strictly forbids Israelites to lend to each other on interest. This book explores five areas in which the talmudic Rabbis believed that business agreements violated the biblical ban: loans of produce, advance payment for the purchase of goods, buying on credit, mortgages, and investments.
