OverviewThis study deals essentially with the knowledge of the Palestinian Rabbis concerning paganism in the days of Mishna and Talmud. The Late Professor Saul Lieberman wrote that Many isolated items on idolatry and idol worshippers are scattered all over rabbinic literature. It would require a large volume to treat this topic. This valuable and exhaustive study proves methodically that the Rabbis had deeper knowledge about Syrian, Arabian, Anatolian and Graeco-Roman Pagan cults than is commonly believed. Clear, accessible and displaying considerable scholarship, this work will undoubtedly provide an important challenge to both historians, archaeologists, and scholars of Rabbinic texts. Cette etude traite essentiellement du niveau de connaissances des Rabbins de Judee et de Galilee concernant les cultes paiens dans le sens le plus large du terme. Le Professeur Saul Lieberman affirmait: Many isolated items on idolatry and idol worshippers are scattered all over rabbinic literature. It would require a large volume to treat this topic Ce travail exhaustif, a travers l'ensemble du corpus talmudique et au regard de la realite historique propre a la Palestine romaine, montre methodiquement que les connaissances des Sages, tant sur les divinites du paganisme que sur des rites syriens, arabes, anatoliens voire greco-romains, etaient bien plus vastes et approfondies, que ce qu'il est communement admis aujourd'hui par la recherche historique. De part sa clarete et son accessibilite, ce livre interessera aussi bien les historiens du peuple juif, que ceux des religions antiques. Les archeologues, les historiens du Levant a l'epoque romaine, ainsi que les specialistes de la litterature talmudique y trouveront egalement un vif interet en vertu de son aspect extremement novateur.
