Synopsis

Jonathan S. Milgram demonstrates that the transformation of inheritance laws from the biblical to the tannaitic period is best explained against the backdrop of the legal and social contexts in which the laws were formulated. He argues for an affinity between Roman and tannaitic inheritance practices and the possible role of the social and economic contexts in tannaitic Palestine.
