Book Description
Most people associate the term "Samaritan" exclusively with the New Testament stories about the Good Samaritan and the Samaritan woman at Jacob's well. Very few are aware that a small community of about 750 Samaritans still lives today in Palestine and Israel; they view themselves as the true Israelites, having resided in their birthplace for thousands of years and preserving unchanged the revelation given to Moses in the Torah. Reinhard Pummer, one of the world's foremost experts on Samaritanism, offers in this book a comprehensive introduction to the people identified as Samaritans in both biblical and nonbiblical sources. Besides analyzing the literary, epigraphic, and archaeological sources, he examines the Samaritans' history, their geographical distribution, their version of the Pentateuch, their rituals and customs, and their situation today.

Book Description
With an examination of various sources mentioning Samaritans or questions that can be related to a possible Samaritan-Judaean conflict, this book offers a new understanding both of Samaritanism and Judaism in their formation. The literature under examination dates from the Persian period to well into the Roman period and stems from Jewish, Christian, Hellenistic and Samaritan circles. This study concentrates on the anachronisms of the writers as well as those of our readings of the texts.
