dc.description.abstract |
In his review essay on my dissertation, Esias E. Meyer dedicates an
important part to discussing the slave laws in the Pentateuch. A key role
in his critique is played by his understanding of the term pater familias
as “a man with a woman and children.” This, however, is not how I used
the term; rather, a pater familias is the head of an extended family with
land possession. In this response, I show that landownership is the key
to understanding the relationship between the slave laws of the
Pentateuch. |
