Goodenough, Jurisprudence of the Jewish Courts in Egypt, 1929
Jurisprudence of the Jewish courts in Egypt: legal administration by the Jews under the early Roman Empire as described by Philo Judaeus: by Erwin
Ramsdell Goodenough, viii+268p., New Haven: Yale University Press, 1929. (This work resulted from the author’s reading of Philo’s De specialibus legibus
from a lawyer’s point of view. The author discovered that Philo, writing in the 1st century, had been concerned with the administration of Jewish
society in Alexandria and its body of laws. Professor Goodenough, who received his D. Phil. from Oxford University, finds a correlation between between
Philo’s works and Greek and Roman law. There is an index by places (p.257) and an index by names/subjects (p.263)
