The Status of the Jews in Egypt: The Fifth Arthur Davies Memorial Lecture by W. M. Flinders Petrie is a study that explores the complex subject of the relationship between Jews and other populations in Egypt. The author draws attention to the historical and socio-cultural contexts in which the relatively special status of Jews has been preserved throughout the ages. Petrie analyzes the laws, customs, and stereotypes that influenced the position of the Jewish community, examining the influence of political and religious factors on their lives in Egypt. This book is an important contribution to the study of Jewish and Egyptian history, expanding our understanding of interfaith relations in the region.
