This book offers a new theory of property and distributive justice derived from Talmudic law, illustrated by a case study involving the sale of organs for transplant. Although organ donation did not exist in late antiquity, this book posits a new way, drawn from the Talmud, to conceive of this modern means of giving to others.
1. Beyond gift and commodity: rethinking the compartmentalization approach to the problem of commodification; 2. Alternate property conceptions: the donor's lien; 3. 'From the table of the most high': divine ownership and private property in Talmudic law; 4. 'And your brother shall live with you': the divine lien and the obligation to save human life; 5. Returning a 'lost body' with one's body: human organ transplantation and the (re)consecration of the body.
