Law in Hebrew Bible and Elephantine Papyri

Research Interests

I am interested in researching the following areas: Law in Hebrew Bible and Elephantine papyri. The Elephantine papyri are evidence that there was a community in ancient Elephantine. The entity and identity of the community had a mixture of some cultures and are therefore complex. The question is how the Elephantine community relate and define their identity as Jews in diaspora and how they connect to Jews in Jerusalem. The comparison of Law in Hebrew Bible and Elephantine Papyri is the main of my research interest.
