Zwaarddijk wrote:Jewish courts were quite curtailed - they could not mete out capital punishment in any Jewish communities within the Roman empire. Some autonomy was granted though - Jewish business laws were used by pharisees when doing business with pharisees, etc. Right now I don't have time to dig up any references, but I can try tomorrow.

Thanks. Look forward to the info. :cheers:
