Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the second century CE; after three failed revolts against Rome, in 66–70, 115–17, and 132–35 CE , the Jews turned from political to religious aims, from suicidally militant messianism to pacifist resignation. If, as Josephus writes of the Great Revolt of 66–70, the Jews had “preferred to perish at one fell swoop than piecemeal” (AJ XX 11,1 [256]), after 135 CE survival within the “four cubits of the Law” ( Berakhot 8a) was their aim. Resistance to Roman rule was now sublimated into the cut and thrust of talmudic argument (cf. Megillah 15b, Kiddushin 30b). The tannaitic Midrash, Sifre on Deuteronomy 32:35 identifies the “craftsmen and smiths” exiled to Babylonia by Nebuchadnezzar (597 BCE) with gifted scholars engaged in “the warfare of Torah” (321). These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
