Abstract

This book suggests a new approach to the social history of Jewish religious movements in the Second Temple and early Rabbinic periods. It argues that most of these movements and their traditions emerged within the context of complex interaction between traditional families and disciple circles. The first part of the book examines the development of Jewish religious movements during the Second Temple period. It culminates with the discussion of the Dead Sea Sect, which is analyzed as the first unambiguous example of a movement shifting from a social structure based on families to a social structure based on disciple circles. The second part of the book discusses the history of pharisaic and early rabbinic movements from a similar perspective. Topics covered in the book will be of interest to scholars of Judaism and Early Christianity.

Abstract

This book explores the influence of Roman imperialism on the development of Messianic themes in Judaism in the fifth through the eight centuries CE. It pays special attention to the ways in which Roman imperial ideology and imperial eschatology influenced Jewish representations of the Messiah and Messianic age. Topics addressed in the book include: representations of the Messianic kingdom of Israel as a successor to the Roman Empire, the theme of imperial renewal in Jewish eschatology and its Roman parallels, representations of the emperor in late antique literature and art and their influence on the representations of the Messiah, the mother of the Messiah in late antique and Byzantine cultural contexts, and the figure of the last Roman Emperor in Christian and Jewish tradition.

Abstract

Alexei Sivertsev untersucht die Struktur der aristokratischen jüdischen Familien und deren öffentliche Funktion in der späten Phase des römisch-byzantinischen Reichs (3. bis 5. Jahrhundert). Der Autor geht der Entwicklung der einst nationalen patriarchalischen Aristokratie (Nesiim) des vormals unabhängigen jüdischen Staates zu Stadtmagnaten und munizipalen Amtsträgern der römischen Provinz Palästina nach, die im ersten und zweiten nachchristlichen Jahrhundert auch in anderen Provinzen des römischen Reiches stattfand. Desweiteren untersucht Alexei Sivertsev die Funktionen im religiösen, verwaltungstechnischen und rechtlichen Bereich, die von den aristokratischen Familien erfüllt wurden und den Prozeß, durch den die lokalen Aristokraten des römischen Nahen Ostens in die zentralisierte Staatsverwaltung des späten Römischen Reichs eingebunden wurden.
