This article is available in Studies in Mediterranean Antiquity and Classics: https://digitalcommons.macalester.edu/ classicsjournal/vol5/iss1/2 Levin: Reconciling Apostasy in Genesis Rabbah 80 Genesis 34 contains the account of the rape of Dinah by Shechem, a prince of a neighboring tribe, and the brutal revenge extracted by her brothers Simeon and Levi. It is a story with many implications for the way Jews view women’s bodies, intermarriage with Gentiles, pride, and zealous violence. The fate of Dinah was used to justify an absolute ban on intermarriage in the Second Temple Period, and is being used by feminists today to reclaim women’s voices in the Bible.

Dr. Andrew Opel Thesis Director Dr. Martin Kavka Outside Committee Member Dr. Arienne Ferchaud Committee Member 2 Abstract Anti-Semitism in the United States is just as prevalent today as it has ever been. How does this cultural anti-Semitism translate into the media? Through portraying Jews as greedy, neurotic, pushy, money obsessed, cheap, and a myriad other negative stereotypes, the media often perpetuates long standing anti-Semitic tropes. This thesis analyzes the prevalence of Jewish stereotypes in modern television through the analysis and discussion of three of the most popular current television shows, getting into the nuance and complexity of Jewish representation. Through the deliberate viewing of Big Mouth, The Goldbergs, and Schitt’s Creek, the conclusion is that although an effort is being made to debunk some stereotypes about Jews, there are other Jewish stereotypes that have remained popular in television media. These stereotypes are harmful to Jews because they both feed and fuel the anti-Semitic attitudes of viewers.

  • (Bsanhedrin 82A): a LEGAL STUDY of INTERMARRIAGE in CLASSICAL JEWISH SOURCES
    "IS SHE FORBIDDEN OR PERMITTED?" (bSANHEDRIN 82a): A LEGAL STUDY OF INTERMARRIAGE IN CLASSICAL JEWISH SOURCES by Laliv Clenman A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of PhD Graduate Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations University of Toronto © Copyright by Laliv Clenman (2009) Name: Laliv Clenman Degree: Ph.D. Year of Convocation: 2009 Graduate Department: Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations University of Toronto Thesis Title: "Is she forbidden or permitted?" (bSanhedrin 82a): A Legal Study of Intermarriage in Classical Jewish Sources Thesis Abstract: This longitudinal and comparative study explores the nature and development of rabbinic thought on intermarriage. One could hardly phrase the query that lies at the heart of this work better than the Talmud itself: "Is she forbidden or permitted?" (bSanhedrin 82a). This challenge, posed to Moses as part of an exegetical exploration of the problem of intermarriage, asks so much more than whether an Israelite might marry a Gentile. It points to conflicts between biblical law and narrative, biblical and rabbinic law, as well as incompatibilities within rabbinic halakhah. The issues of status, national identity and gender loom large as the various legal and narrative sources on intermarriage are set on an hermeneutic collision course. In this way many rabbinic sources display a deep understanding of the complexity inherent to any discussion of intermarriage in rabbinic tradition. Considering intermarriage as a construct that lies at the intersection between identity and marital rules, we begin this study of rabbinic legal systems with an analysis of the notion of intramarriage and Jewish identity in halakhah as expressed through the - ii - system of the asarah yuchasin (ten lineages).
