Publisher's Description

In Sketches of Jewish Social Life, Alfred Edersheim has done modern readers a favor. The Old and New Testaments are about a time and society very different from today, with different customs and idioms. Sketches of Jewish Social Life is meant to fill the gap between ancient and modern readers. It does this by providing the common knowledge of that day for today's readers. In his book, Edersheim provides insight into the basics of Jewish society, customs, political powers, etc, occasionally applying it to particular biblical passages and events. There are more serious, technical texts of this type, which provide more in depth and modern information about biblical customs. But Edersheim's Sketches of Jewish Social Life provides valuable information that will not overwhelm readers with data. Edersheim's Sketches of Jewish Social Life is thus ideal for anyone wanting a richer understanding of the Old and New Testaments. -Tim Perrine, CCEL Staff Writer

Sketches of Jewish Social Life - eBook 4 5 1 1

This book is very interesting and helpful. Even though the copyright is decades ago, the information about Jewish (biblical) customs is very helpful. The geographical information alone is worth the price of the book. May 23, 2012
