Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - The duty to procreate is central in traditional Jewish and Christian life. It is true that Christianity in principle prefers celibacy. But if you are not up to it - and the vast majority of humans are not - the proper path to take is the Jewish one: marriage with a view to having children. The dutiful seeking of children will justify the non-celibate, second-best course. In today's address it will be contended that the duty came into these religions from heathen politics. The argument will proceed in three parts: the first will be devoted to the lack of Biblical authority, the second to the development of the duty in classical antiquity, and the third to its reception by Rabbis and Church Fathers.
