[Heb-NACO] Prostitution (Jewish law) on w.l. 24

[Aaron Kuperman]

While I have no problem with establishing the heading and the linkage to
KBM, the book in question (from what I can see, it is still a CIP that LC
hasn't received) does not appear to be about that topic. The 
"prostitution" referred to in the book appears to "sacred prostitution"
(sex as a religious ritual) rather than what the LC heading "prostitution"
means (which as defined refers to being a "whore" - someone who engages in
sex for monetary compensation).  While the heading is acceptable, I
question if there is valid literary warrant, and whether, if it is a third
of the book, a heading for "sacred prostitution" should be estabished.

I have added a 952 note to the bib record to see the book if and when it
arrives.
