Description

Explore the evolution of early Jewish wedding traditions in First Came Marriage: The Rabbinic Appropriation of Early Jewish Wedding Ritual. This scholarly work from Gorgias Press examines how ritual and historical perspectives provide a complete view of ancient marriage practices. By combining these two approaches, the text examines the specific customs that early rabbis and their successors chose to highlight or reject. This volume investigates the actual processes early Jews used to marry and the strategic moves made to minimize, elaborate, or codify these rituals. It offers a deep look into how Jewish marriage was shaped through rabbinic appropriation. Part of the Judaism in Context series, this book is an essential resource for those studying Jewish life and religious history.
