The Increase in Demand for Sacrificial Animals at Festivals Sample Clauses

The Increase in Demand for Sacrificial Animals at Festivals. Demand for daily sacrifices increased during festival periods, heightening the economic impact of the sacrificial animal trade. Philo’s comment in Moses 2.159 reflects this reality: “Many sacrifices were necessarily brought every day, and particularly at general assemblies and feasts, on behalf both of individuals and all in individual sacrifices.

The Increase in Demand for Sacrificial Animals at Festivals. Demand for daily sacrifices increased during festival periods, heightening the economic impact of the sacrificial animal trade. Philo’s comment in Moses 2.159 reflects this reality: “Many sacrifices were necessarily brought every day, and particularly at general assemblies and feasts, on behalf both of individuals and all in individual sacrifices. Only a well-to-do individual would offer a quadruped as a sin offering” (Sanders, Judaism, 110). 190 Affordability was an important quality of doves. Leviticus 5:7 expressly designates doves as a sacrifice the poor can make. M. Ker. 1:7 relates R. Simeon b. Gamaliel’s attempt to establish a maximum price for sacrificial doves after the price of birds had risen to a gold dinar (= 25 silver dinars) for a pair. R. Simeon proceeds to teach in the temple with the aim of getting the price reduced. He manages to get the price reduced by ninety-nine per cent, to a quarter-denar each (one one- hundredth of the former price). According to Jeremias, R. Simeon’s actions stem from his concerns that the high prices would prevent the poor from offering sacrifice (Jerusalem, 34). One stream of scholarship argues that the Jerusalem priesthood sought to profit from the sale of sacrifices and exploited the masses to do so (e.g., Richard Bauckham, “Jesus’ Demonstration in the Temple,” in Law and Religion: Essays on the Place of the Law in Israel and Early Christianity [ed. Barnabas Lindars; Cambridge: James Clark and Co., 1988], 72–89). Against this view, Sanders argues priests sought to encourage temple worship, a goal “best served by holding down the direct costs of doing so” (Judaism, 89–92 [90]). Establishing low-cost birds as an acceptable sacrifice is key to meeting this goal and parallels the practice of most ancient temples (ibid., 90). Cf. m. H"ag. 1:2, in which the Houses of Hillel and Shammai debate how much should be spent on sacrifices brought for the first day of a pilgrimage festival; the amounts in question are rather small (Sanders, Judaism, 405). common, and for a multitude of different reasons” (Colson, LCL; italics added).191 Passages from the Mishnah also indicate an increased demand in sacrifices during festivals.192 Temple procedures changed during the pilgrimage feasts to accommodate the increase in individual sacrifices that took place.193 A sharp increase in the sale of sheep for sacrifices occurred during Passover, lambs being the special sacrifice of Passover.
