92 Robert G. HoylandIs <strong>the</strong>re any evidence external to <strong>the</strong> Muslim tradition that we can use? The onlyclassical reference we have, <strong>in</strong> Josephus's Jewish Antiquities (15:9:3), mentionsthat Herod dispatched 500 chosen men from his personal bodyguard to go with·· ·Aelius Gallus on his march through western Arabia to conquer <strong>the</strong> Yemen <strong>in</strong>:26-24 BCE, but we know noth<strong>in</strong>g of <strong>the</strong>ir fate or even if <strong>the</strong>y were necessarilyJews (Herod had non-Jews among his bodyguard). The Palest<strong>in</strong>ian and 'Babylonian Talmud make occasional allusions to Arabia. For example, <strong>the</strong>re area number of occasions when rabbis note that "<strong>in</strong> Arabia <strong>the</strong>y call x y", that is,<strong>in</strong>stead of <strong>the</strong> usual Hebrew word <strong>the</strong>y use a different term. As has reasonablybeen argued, this is best expla<strong>in</strong>ed by suppos<strong>in</strong>g "<strong>the</strong> settlement of a colony of ·Jews <strong>in</strong> Arabia". 3 Oddly, however, <strong>the</strong> proponent of this solution never for amoment considered where exactly might be meant by "Arabia." S<strong>in</strong>ce <strong>the</strong>se state-.ments mostly orig<strong>in</strong>ate with Palest<strong>in</strong>ian authorities (tannaim and amoraim) of <strong>the</strong> .first to fourth centuries CE, we might suppose that <strong>the</strong>y chiefly <strong>in</strong>tend sou<strong>the</strong>rnPalest<strong>in</strong>e and <strong>the</strong> Transjordan, that is, <strong>the</strong> Nabataean hea1ilands and subsequently,after <strong>the</strong>ir annexation <strong>in</strong> I 05/106 CE, <strong>the</strong> Roman prov<strong>in</strong>ce of Arabia. Thus whenone sees that <strong>in</strong> support of Rabbi Levi's assertion, "<strong>in</strong> Arabia <strong>the</strong>y call a lambyobla" (Berakot 9:1), <strong>the</strong> say<strong>in</strong>g of Rabbi Aqiba of Jerusalem is quoted, "when Iwent to Arabia, <strong>the</strong>y were call<strong>in</strong>g a lamb yobla'' (Rosh ha-shanah 26a), onesuspects that that part of Arabia just across <strong>the</strong> Jordan from Jerusalem is meantra<strong>the</strong>r than faraway Hijaz. 4 Yet it cannot be doubted that occasionally <strong>the</strong> sou<strong>the</strong>rnmostreaches ofNabataea/Roman Arabia are <strong>in</strong>tended. For example, <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> thirdcentury CE <strong>the</strong> Galilean rabbis Hiyya <strong>the</strong> Great and Simeon ben Halafta consideredit worth <strong>the</strong>ir while mak<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> journey to "Hegra of Arabia" (Mada' <strong>in</strong> Salih)<strong>in</strong> order to "learn aga<strong>in</strong>" <strong>the</strong> mean<strong>in</strong>g of some Aramaic words that <strong>the</strong>y hadforgotten. 5There are also some scraps of pre-Islamic Arabic poetry composed bynorthwest Arabian Jews <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> sixth and early seventh century. The mostfamous of <strong>the</strong>se Jewish poets was Samuel b. 'Adiya', a resident of <strong>the</strong> oasisof Tayma, to whom a whole corpus of poems is attributed and who helped <strong>the</strong>heroic Imru' al-Qays (d. c. 550 CE), a pr<strong>in</strong>ce of <strong>the</strong> rul<strong>in</strong>g clan of K<strong>in</strong>da, onhis journey to Constant<strong>in</strong>ople <strong>in</strong> pursuit of justice for his murdered fa<strong>the</strong>r. But<strong>the</strong>se, like those of more m<strong>in</strong>or Jewish poets such as ai-RabT' b. Abi 1-I;Iuqayq,Shurayl). b. 'Imd<strong>in</strong>, Shu'ba b. Ghari9, Abii Qays b. Rifii'a, Dirham b. Zayd and3 A. Cohen, "Arabisms <strong>in</strong> Rabb<strong>in</strong>ic literature," Jewish Quarterly Review 1912/13, 224. See fur<strong>the</strong>rS. .Krauss, "Talmudische Nachrichten tiber Arabien," ZDMG 70, 1916,321-53, and J. Retso, The ·.Arabs <strong>in</strong> Antiquity, London: Routledge, 2003, 526-32, which do consider <strong>the</strong> geographical ·implications.4 Certa<strong>in</strong>ly Josephus uses <strong>the</strong> term "Arabians" when he is talk<strong>in</strong>g about Herod's battles with hisNabataean neighbours, and it seems sure that St Paul had <strong>in</strong> m<strong>in</strong>d <strong>the</strong> Nabataean k<strong>in</strong>gdom when hewrote "I went off to Arabia and later I came back to Damascus" (Galatians I: 17).5 Midrash Rabbah 79.7, re: Genesis 33.19; ed. J. Theodor (revised edition by Ch. Albeck; Jerusalem:Wahrmann, 1965), 946; trans. H. Freedman (London: Sonc<strong>in</strong>o, 1951), il2-33 (who mistranslatesEgra as Agora I "market"). I am grateful to Dr Oded Irshai for this reference.The Jews of <strong>the</strong> Hijaz <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Qur 'an 93> 'Abii 1-Dhayyal, are comparable <strong>in</strong> sentiment and style to pre-Islamic Arabic"poetry <strong>in</strong> general, and lack any specific <strong>historical</strong> detail or concrete religiousexpression. 6·. Lastly <strong>the</strong>re is <strong>the</strong> epigraphic record. This has produced quite rich and <strong>in</strong>forma••: tive results for <strong>the</strong> land of South Arabia dur<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> fourth to sixth centuries, as hasbeen ably demonstrated by Christian Rob<strong>in</strong>. 7 Here I will try to do <strong>the</strong> same for <strong>the</strong>· · · Jews of northwest Arabia. The <strong>in</strong>scriptions from this region have not received., .much attention. Only two are mentioned by Gordon Newby <strong>in</strong> his History of <strong>the</strong>'.J'ews of Arabia, 8 and only three are cited <strong>in</strong> J-B. Frey's Corpus Inscriptionum1udaicarum (nos. 1421-23 =nos. 1-3 below). The record is somewhat meagre, it is·true, but <strong>in</strong> a situation where any evidence at all is hard to come by, it seems worth<strong>in</strong>ak<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> best of what we have got. I will first review <strong>the</strong> texts <strong>the</strong>mselves, and<strong>the</strong>n consider at <strong>the</strong> end what conclusions we might draw from <strong>the</strong>m; Only no. 1 isa self-confessed Jew; <strong>the</strong> rest rely on <strong>in</strong>dicators that are regarded to be typical ofidentity: Jewish names, Jewish expressions and <strong>the</strong> Hebrew script; <strong>the</strong>se are<strong>in</strong>dicators, but it goes without say<strong>in</strong>g that <strong>the</strong>y are not <strong>in</strong>fallible. 9>Texts by self-confessed Jews· Place: Mada' <strong>in</strong> Salih (=ancient Hegra I al-I;Iijr)······Type: Tomb <strong>in</strong>scriptionDate: 42/43 CE:Script/Lang.: Nabataean Aramaic· Eut<strong>in</strong>g 1885, 64; CIS 2.219; JS Nab4; Healey 1994, H4; Noja 1979, I.Text: "This is <strong>the</strong> tomb which Shubaytu son of 'Ali'u, <strong>the</strong> Jew (yhwdy'), 10 made· .. :for himself and for his children and for 'Amirat, his wife.
