Synopsis

Discover how Jewish communities interacted with Roman power across centuries and regions. This edition delves into governance, religious life, and the social threads that bound ancient Jews to a vast imperial world.



The work examines the roles and burdens of local officials, such as the decurions, and how laws, edicts, and public duties shaped daily life in cities like Treves and beyond. It traces power dynamics from Severus to Constantine and reveals how communities navigated exemptions, obligations, and political change while maintaining their institutions and identity.




  • How municipal leadership functioned and which offices touched Jewish communities

  • How Roman emperors and provincial authorities influenced local governance

  • Examples of law, taxation, and civic duties as experienced by Jews in different regions

  • Historical context tying Roman politics to Jewish communal life and survival



Ideal for readers of ancient history, Roman politics, and Jewish history in the classical world.
