Book Synopsis Sects and Sectarianism in Jewish History by : Sacha Stern
Book excerpt: Several Jewish groups from Antiquity until today have been traditionally identified as ‘sects’ or as ‘sectarian’, most famously the Qumran community and the Qaraites. This volume questions the appropriateness of this interpretation of social and religious movements in Jewish history.
