About This Book
A systematic, chaptered survey of ancient Hebrew civil and religious institutions, explaining offices and social ranks, the Temple, synagogues and sacred sites, calendars, festivals and Sabbath practice, sacrificial and ritual procedures, and varieties of idolatry and divination. It outlines judicial and ecclesiastical courts, procedures for judgment, punishments and excommunications, and the rites surrounding marriage, divorce, burial, circumcision, tithes and vows. Comparative observations highlight similarities and borrowings from neighboring peoples, and supplementary material clarifies obscure texts and practical details such as measures, coins and liturgical implements.
