Daube, David. Studies in Biblical Law. Cambridge: At the University Press, 1947. viii, 328 pp. Reprinted 2004 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN 1-58477-431-2. Cloth.

* Daube [1909-1999], a formidably learned scholar who held doctorates in biblical law and Roman law, was Regius Professor of Civil Law at Cambridge and a Professor of Law at the University of California, Berkeley. An orthodox Jew, he received a thorough education in Hebrew, Aramaic and Talmudic law. This book collects five of his more important essays: "Law in the Narratives," "Codes and Codas," "Lex Talionis," "Communal Responsibility" and "Summum Ius-Summa Iniuria."

Editorial Reviews

Book Description

This book contains five ground-breaking essays on the legal issues present in a number of Old Testament narratives. Among the topics discussed are theft, deception, evidence, liability and punishment. Daube's book will resonate afresh in the scholarly climate where the relationships between law, religion, Judaism and Christianity are again the subject of lively debate. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
