Impurity and Sin in Ancient Judaism
Jonathan Klawans
Oxford University Press, 2004-12-02 - 272 pages
This
book examines the ways in which two distinct biblical conceptions of
impurity-"ritual" and "moral"-were interpreted in the Hebrew Bible, the
Dead Sea Scrolls, rabbinic literature, and the New Testament. In
examining the evolution of ancient Jewish attitudes towards sin and
defilement, Klawans sheds light on a fascinating but previously
neglected topic.
