Description
Key Features
This Gorgias Press publication examines ancient Midrash through the study of king-themed parables.
The text explores how the Rabbis used these stories to reflect on the role of rulers in society.
It analyzes parables as resistance literature using theories related to dominated groups.
This work serves as the first systematic attempt in over 100 years to use these parables as sources for Roman history.
The book provides deep insight into the relationship between humanity and God within the third-century Roman Empire.
