This work is a study of the evidence for Samaritan religious practices and beliefs from the time that the Samaritan Temple on Mt Gerizim was destroyed to the period of the great Samaritan reformer and leader Baba Rabba, who the author believes lived in the 3rd century AD. The text makes use of the Greek and Latin fathers, examines the Rabbinic and archaeological sources and gives a general view of Samaritan religious beliefs in the period.
