The way that Judaism was used to assert political authority and/or reinforce social hierarchies was by intermingling the roles of religious leaders with political authority.
<h3>How was Judaism used to control politics?</h3>
Judaism was not just a belief system for the Jews that guided their religious life, it also guided their political life.
This is because the religious leaders in Judaism also had political authority. For instance, the King or Judge was someone who was appointed by God and so could speak to God.
This led to political authority being asserted with greater ease, and for social hierarchy to be maintained.
