New article on Jewish associations in Palestine by Instone-Brewer and I
Posted by Phil Harland. Categories: Associations , Early Judaism and the diaspora1 Comment
A while back David Instone-Brewer (of Tyndale Tech fame) and I co-wrote an article which has now appeared on the Journal of Greco-Roman Judaism and Christianity site in volume 5 (2008).
“Jewish Associations in Roman Palestine: Evidence from the Mishnah”.
Most of what is original there is by David, and I primarily provide associational context for his discussion of the Mishnaic evidence.

Hi Prof. Harland,
I enjoyed the new article. I think it is a very interesting direction to go in. I would love to know more about your colleague’s position with respect to dating traditions in the Mishna and using rabbinic sources for historical reconstruction.
