The Jurisprudence of the Jewish Courts in Egypt: Legal Administration by the Jews Under the Early Roman Empire As Desribed by Philo Judaeus

Reprint of the first and only edition. Originally published: New Haven: Yale University Press, 1929. vii, 268 pp. Goodenough takes a look at the work of the great ancient Jewish philosopher from the unique point of view of the practical lawyer, rather than the theologian, and as such illuminates much about law as practiced in the Jewish courts in Alexandria.
