description Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Article 2022 DenmarkPublisher:Brill Funded by:EC | ANINANEC| ANINANAuthors: Uusimäki, Elisa;Uusimäki, Elisa;Abstract This article explores literary representations of female mobility in the Hebrew Bible. While it is often assumed that women barely moved in the ancient world, the study shows that the Hebrew Bible gives witness to a vast spectrum of travelling agents. The texts do not offer direct access to socio-historical realities, but as documents of cultural history, they are argued to hint at and echo the variety of the phenomenon in ancient Israel. It is not meaningful to speak of the travelling women as a collective, however, as the motives for their movement are tied to various socioeconomic contexts, ranging from slavery to economic migration to foreign policy. While class is fundamental to ancient female mobility, the sources also reveal the significance of other intersecting differences such as age, sexuality, kinship, ethnicity, or religion displayed by the (in)voluntary travelling agents.

According to the Old Testament, these particular years occurred every seventh or every fiftieth year. In the absence of any proof, however, that the Babylonian edicts should have been issued at regular intervals, F. R. Kraus and J. J. Finkelstein are rather unwilling to accept that the Babylonian institution is parallel to the Israelite one. J. Lewy, on the other hand, goes further and attempts to prove from the cuneiform literature that the Mesopotamian decree on the remission of debt, manumission, etc. and the Israelite Jubilee Year legislation had mutual origins in the Amorite population which was spread over a large part of Mesopotamia, as well as Palestine and Syria. In pre-monarchical Israel the institution was supposed to recur at regular intervals due to the lack of governmental authorities, whereas in Mesopotamia the various kings were free to regulate the dates freely. M. Weinfeld has recently gone further in his comparisons and tries to show that the Israelite Sabbath and Jubilee Year institutions survived all through the period of the Israelite monarchy in the form of royal reform laws, issued at regular intervals.
