Abstract: Based on a critical analysis of Jewish, Graeco-Roman, and early Christian literary, epigraphic, and archaeological sources, Catherine Hezser studies Jewish travel in Hellenistic and Roman times. She examines the development from centralization in Second Temple Judaism to decentralized post-70 rabbinic Judaism depending on travel to establish social connections and enable communication.
