Number XL of Monographic Supplement Series
“In the present monograph, [...]Dr. Jaffee[...]explores the arcane Jewish monastic communities of the first century, which, until the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, were known only by cursory references in the works of Josephus and Philo and adventitious remarks in Pliny the Elder and Eusebius. He goes on to describe for us the monastic features of later Rabbinic–Halakhic spirituality as it possibly reflects the mystical and ascetical precepts and practices of these groups. [...]Professor Jaffee traces the short-lived phenomenon of Jewish monasticism[...]as a springboard for his comments on the monastic character of what he calls the ‘inner-worldly monasticism’ of Rabbinic–Halakhic spirituality.”
