A system of pits recently discovered in Khirbet el-Hammam in northern Samaria apparently meets the accepted definition of “Gibeon pits”. These pits, used to store wine in the late Iron Age and early Persian period, are evidence of a developed local agriculture and of the site’s centrality. The location and identification of these pits in connection to other remains from Khirbet el-Hammam may shed new light on the size and centrality of the city during the Iron Age.

יוסף טובי נגינה וכלי נגינה בשירת החול העברית בספרד: שיר השבח של יוסף אבן צדיק לכבוד יצחק אבן ברון, דפים למחקר בספרות 16-17 (תשסט) 101-137

Medieval Arabic sources attest that Arabic poetry, especially the muwaššaḥāt, were performed in the courts of the kings with music, usually by the qaynah (pl. qiyān), the captive female slave, specifically educated and raised to be a singer, music player and dancer at the courtly banquets. No wonder, then, that this character of the qaynah frequently appears in medieval Arabic poetry, in particular that of Andalusia. The regular musical instrument used at these banquets was the lute (Ar. al-'ūd; Heb. kinnor or nevel). This object was highly esteemed in Arabic literature and was considered the foremost musical instrument. From the mid-tenth century Hebrew secular verse in Andalusia adopted the theme of music, and in fact reflected all its details as they appear in Arabic poetry. The present paper surveys in detail the occurrences of music in all its aspects in Andalusian Hebrew poetry, from Dunaš ben Labrạt at the court of Ḥisday ben Šaprūt in Cordova in the third quarter of the ...

חיבור זה עוסק ביחסי הגומלין שבין היהדות, ובאופן קונקרטי – ההלכה, לבין שיח זכויות האדם. למושג זכויות האדם כמה משמעויות. הספר מבקש לאמץ כאן דרך ביניים המכירה בכך שזכויות האדם הן גורם מתווך בין ערכים לבין חובות, או, מנקודת מבט תרבותית, דרך ביטוי פרטיקולרית למערכת ערכים העומדת בבסיס זכויות אלו. ליהדות פנים רבות. החיבור מתמקד בהופעתה הנורמטיבית – בהלכה. טענתי היא שהשיח ההלכתי מתאפיין במערכת ערכים המשפיעה על ההכרעות הניתנות במסגרתו, כמו גם על אופיו ועיצובו. השפעה זו מתבטאת לעתים בגלוי, אך לרוב באופן סמוי, כגורם בעל השפעה בתהליך הפרשני. ברובד הסמוי, העקיף לעתים, יש מכנה משותף רחב מאוד בין היהדות לבין זכויות האדם, והוא מתבטא בשורשים המניעים את המערכות הללו, כל אחת בדרכה. הפרק המצורף לדוגמא - המפגש הסמוי: שיקולים מוסריים כשיקולים פרשניים מנחים.

British authorities in Palestine encouraged the development of Jerusalem beyond its municipal boundaries, based on their understanding of its future trends. Under Ottoman rule, new neighborhoods were built in proximity to the center of town and with a certain degree of geographic contiguity with the neighborhoods that preceded them. In contrast, the British Mandate built neighborhoods in remote locations, spread over extensive areas. These neighborhoods had no contiguity with any previous settlements, and were planned based on available land. These "Garden Suburbs" established a new form of urban sprawl that surrounded central Jerusalem from the south (Talpiot together with Admat Amos and Givat Eliyahu, which were in the planning stage) and the west (Rehavia, Bayit VeGan, Beit HaKerem, Kiryat Moshe and Givat Shaul). Until the beginning of the Mandate period, the area east of Jerusalem remained almost devoid of Jewish habitation. Members of Agudat HaDayarim (The Tenants&#39...

Cooking and the male gaze: Tamar as viewed by Lucius (II Samuel 13 and Apuleus' Golden Ass 2:7). A comparison of two texts from the Ancient World that refer to a similar cooking activity by a woman in the context of male erotic reaction to it. The texts are not related to each other as a literary tradition; however, the similarities in the everyday activity portrayed in both allow them to illuminate each other to the modern reader.
