Book excerpt: It is remarkable that Judaism could develop given the domination by Rome in Palestine over the centuries. Smallwood traces Judaism's constantly shifting political, religious, and geographical boundaries under Roman rule from Pompey to Diocletian, that is, from the first century BCE through the third century CE. From a long-standing nationalistic tradition that was a tolerated sect under a pagan ruler, Judaism becomes, over time, a threat that needs to be repressed and confined against a now-Christian empire.

Book Synopsis The Jews Under Roman Rule by : William Douglas Morrison
Download or read book The Jews Under Roman Rule written by William Douglas Morrison and published by London T.F. Unwin 1890.. This book was released on 1890 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This superb, illustrated history reveals Rome's conquest and rule over Israel and Judea, and how the Roman occupation deeply influenced the culture, law and religious establishment of the Jews. Spanning about 300 years, from the mid-2nd century BC to the mid-2nd century AD, William Morrison's investigation is thorough. Elements of this history is sociological; rigorous examinations of the social classes and composition of the Jewish society before and during the Roman conquest are central to the author's explanations. While other histories of this hotly-debated place of human history become bogged down in minutiae or conflicting sources, Morrison consistently strives to deliver a cohesive vision of ancient Israel and Palestine, of power structures military and religious. Roman policy towards conquered peoples are detailed; these were specially adopted and compromised for the region of Israel after a series of bloody conflicts. The strong presence of an ancient and distinctive monotheistic religion - Judaism - led the Romans to cooperate with the priesthood. Where other peoples had their spiritual traditions destroyed or suppressed, the Jewish temple was permitted to remain. However, the laws in Judea changed along with its overarching culture, especially once trade and migrations ensued between the locality and the wider Empire. Accompanied with some 45 illustrations, maps and photographs, Morrison's history of Israel under Roman occupation remains a valuable work and a worthy read.

Book Synopsis Jews In The Roman World by : Michael Grant
Download or read book Jews In The Roman World written by Michael Grant and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. This book was released on 2011-12-30 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In describing the triangular relationship among the Jews, the Romans and the Greeks, Michael Grant treats one of the most significant themes in world history. Unlike almost all the other subject nations of the Roman empire, the Jews have survived and have maintained a religious and cultural identity that is substantially unchanged. They provide a unique bridge with the ancient world and can bring us into peculiarly close and intimate contact with life in the Roman empire. This book embraces the period in which the Jewish religion assumed virtually its final form, and in which Jews launched their two heroic, but disastrous revolts against Roman rule. This was, moreover, the time when Judaism gave birth to Christianity. Within a century after the death of Jesus, his followers had become completely independent of Judaism. Michael Grant describes the grandeur of the great multiracial Roman empire, beneath whose rule these stirring and unique developments took place.
