Second Temple Jewish Paideia in Contex (2017) is a volume edited by Jason Zurawski and Gabriele Boccaccini.

Abstract

"The subject of this volume, Jewish paideia or education during the Second Temple period, had long received little attention. Yet these fourteen essays demonstrate the fundamental importance of the topic for understanding the history of the period. They also represent the broad array of approaches required to comprehend this multi-faceted subject. The papers were first offered at the 5th Nangeroni Meeting (Naples, Italy, July 2015)."--Publisher's description
