Abstract: lire un livre en ligne Il est apparu que le grand réservoir humain qu’a été l’Arabie, bien protégée par son climat contre les intrusions étrangères, a fourni de tout temps un apport notable à ce qu’on a appelé le Croissant fertile, et cela en vertu de la transhumance obligée qui a entraîné une compénétration constante de populations diverses. En se sédentarisant, à l’occasion, et grâce à un apport lent, mais constant, l’élément sémitique a pris le dessus et, dans son adaptation à cette vie nouvelle, il a fait dominer ses particularités..

TL;DR: In this paper, the author traverses the shoals of legal thought and liturgical practice in ancient Israel and clearly explains the role of the Tabernacle of the Wilderness as the all-important center of Israelite worship, the locus of the priestly orders, sacrificial rituals, and practices of purity.
Abstract: At the beginning of his academic career, author Jacob Milgrom determined to make his lifework a probing study of the "Laws of the Torah". Here, with "Leviticus 1-16", the first of three volumes on Leviticus, he has reached the pinnacle of his long pursuit. No other contemporary commentary matches Milgrom's comprehensive work on this much misunderstood and often underappreciated biblical book.In this richly detailed volume, the author traverses the shoals of legal thought and liturgical practice in ancient Israel. He clearly explains the role of the Tabernacle of the Wilderness as the all-important center of Israelite worship, the locus of the priestly orders, sacrificial rituals, and practices of purity to which the congregation repaired for penitence and reconciliation, restoration and renewal. At the heart of the dwelling place of God was the real presence of the God of Israel, present through his splendor in the midst of the camp and the congregation - a permanent sign of the unique privilege and responsibility of Israel, perceived as a worshipping and serving people.
