Rabbis, Sorcerers, Kings, and Priests – The Culture of the Talmud in Ancient Iran de Jason Sion Mokhtarian

Rabbis, Sorcerers, Kings, and Priests – The Culture of the Talmud in Ancient Iran

Autor Jason Sion Mokhtarian
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 ian 2022
"Building on the recent emergence of a vigorous new direction in Babylonian Talmudic research and stressing the need for a comprehensive contextualization of the Bavli within its broader Iranian environment, Jason Mokhtarian has provided us with a keenly nuanced and well-balanced example of just such an undertaking. His detailed analysis of the roles and images of Iranian kings, Zoroastrian priests, and sorcerers as reflected in the Babylonian Talmudic corpus represents not only a literary tour de force but provides historians of Jews and Judaism with critical new insights into the nature of Babylonian Jewry's legal status, social structure, and cultural frameworks."--Isaiah M. Gafni, Sol Rosenbloom Professor of Jewish History at the Hebrew University

"This is the book for anyone interested in the impact of Sasanian-Persian culture on the Babylonian Talmud. Jason Mokhtarian's consummate knowledge of Iranian languages, religion, and society and his lucid explication of Talmudic passages provide the most comprehensive introduction to this crucial, yet under-explored, subject."--Jeffrey Rubenstein, Skirball Professor of Talmud and Rabbinics at New York University

"The importance of this book for understanding the Sasanian world cannot be underestimated. Jason Mokhtarian has noted every instance in which the Persians are mentioned in the Talmud and has clarified the meaning of the reference to each. This work will help us understand the social and religious history of the Iranshahr (Realm of the Iranians) and their interaction with the Jewish population of late antiquity."--Touraj Daryaee, Maseeh Chair in Persian Studies and Culture and Director of the Jordan Center for Persian Studies and Culture at the University of California, Irvine

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
What impact did the Persian Zoroastrian Empire, as both a real historical force and an imaginary interlocutor, have on rabbinic identity and authority as expressed in the Talmud? This book addresses this question by bringing into mutual fruition Talmudic studies and ancient Iranology, two historically distinct disciplines.
