The rules of evidence, as formulated in the Talmud, are of a remarkable character. They are in most respects unlike those of any ancient legal code; and are diametrically opposed to our modern English practice in every important particular. The primary object of the Hebrew judicial system was to render the conviction of an innocent person impossible. All the ingenuity of the Jewish legists was directed to the attainment of this end. Everywhere the punishment of the guilty seems subordinated to this principal consideration. The credibility of witnesses must be established beyond doubt; their impartiality must be placed above suspicion; the likelihood of prejudice animating any person testifying against a prisoner must be carefully sought out. The admissibility of evidence was determined by a series of stringent regulations disqualifying in each case a number of individuals from coming forward as witnesses. No man could incriminate himself; nor could a wife give evidence against a husband. (Among the Hebrews a betrothed girl was regarded by the law as a married woman.) On the other hand, a prisoner was not debarred from testifying in his own favour; any argument he wished to urge, irrespective of its legal worth, was heard by the judges. Relatives--including many allied by marriage, and nearly all those allied by blood--were incompetent to appear as witnesses. Grandchildren formed, however, an exception to this rule. Those standing in loco parentis to the accused at the time the alleged offence was committed or when the trial commenced; the shushbin--best man, groomsman--during the seven days of marriage; an enemy, i.e. one who had not spoken to the prisoner for a period of three days, owing to dislike or...

Download or read book Crime and Punishment in Jewish Law written by Walter Jacob† and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 1999-10-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible presents only a small portion of the laws necessary for a state to function. Nevertheless, whole tractates of the Talmud discuss a wide variety of legal issues both civil and criminal. Although the jurisdiction of the beth din was limited in every land where Jews have lived, the scholars felt that it was important to develop a system which dealt with every aspect of life. Quite a few of the issues were discussed at a purely theoretical level. But faced with specific problems in their respective communities, the rabbinic scholars were forced to be practical and go beyond the traditional halakhah in order to protect the community. This mixture of idealism and reality shape the later rabbinic discussions, some elements of which have been incorporated into modern Israeli law, but also shape modern Jewish thinking in the Diaspora. This area of the halakhah has been rather neglected, but this volume will no doubt stimulate further research. Published in Association with the Solomon B. Freehof Institute of Progressive Halakhah
