The essays explore the sociology of Judaism during the late Second Jewish Commonwealth, highlighting two forms of religious fellowship: the 'haber,' focused on observance of laws, and the 'talmid hakham,' centered on Torah study. The author contrasts these with the Qumran community, emphasizing differing societal attitudes. The concluding chapter analyzes contemporary Jewish fellowship and proposes ways to revitalize social religious life by drawing on insights from ancient practices.
