Ancient Hebrew Law of Homicide - Mayer Sulzberger - Bog

A compilation of five lectures originally delivered by Sulzberger at Dropsie College in 1913, this work is notable for both its breadth of learning and its cogency of argument. It is also an impressive work of Biblical exegesis. Ranging from the Am Haaretz to "The Polity of the Ancient Hebrews," it places homicide in the wider context of Jewish history, jurisprudence and government. An especially useful feature is the detailed index of cited Biblical passages.
