From the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 AD to the creation of the State of Israel in 1948, the Jews were a conquered nation. Neusner's book explores the attitudes to dignity and nobility in Jewish canonical writings and asks how these virtues relate to the politics of the Jews as a vanquished people.
