Purity and Identity in Ancient Judaism: From the Temple to the Mishnah - Olamot Series in Humanities and Social Sciences
Yair Furstenberg
Explores how the concern for purity shaped the worldview of Jews during the Second Temple period as well as their daily practices and social relations. It examines how different groups offered competing visions and methods for living a life of purity, which embodied a promise for personal and cosmic salvation and at the same time determined the degree of sectarian separation.
