This volume contains the papers of a workshop on Jewish epigraphy in antiquity organized at Utrecht University in 1992. Among the participants were collaborators of the Cambridge Jewish Inscriptions Project and of the Tübinger Atlas des Vorderen Orients project.
Important aspects of ancient Jewish inscriptions are highlighted in the papers, like the connection between documentary and literary texts. Several papers focus on aspects of the history of Jewish communities in the diaspora.
Specialists in Jewish epigraphy will find surveys of parts of the corpus of Jewish inscriptions (curse inscriptions, metrical epitaphs, alphabet-inscriptions) and discussions of some fixed opinions, and Jewish inscriptions are discussed in a wider literary and historical contexts as well.
Jan Willem van Henten, Ph.D. (1986) in Theology, Leiden University, is Professor of Early Christian and Hellenistic Jewish Literature at Amsterdam University. He has published on Jewish martyr texts and Jewish and Early Christian apocalyptic literature. Pieter W. van der Horst, Ph.D. (1978) in Theology, Utrecht University, is Professor of New Testament and the Jewish and Hellenistic Milieu of Early Christianity. He has published extensively on the Pagan and Jewish Background of the New Testament, on ancient Jewish literature and Jewish inscriptions.
