Book excerpt: 'Against Apion' is a polemical work, written by the renowned Jewish historian Flavius Josephus. He sought to make a defense of Judaism as a classical religion and philosophy against criticism by the Greek grammarian Apion, stressing its antiquity against what he perceived as more recent traditions of the Greeks. One of his main sources was Menander of Ephesus. It cites Josephus' earlier work Antiquities of the Jews, so can be dated after C.E. 94. It was most likely written in the early second century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Against Apion" is an important literary work written by Flavius Josephus, a 1st century CE Jewish historian and scholar. The book is a detailed refutation to the Alexandrian grammarian and scholar Apion's writings, which levied many charges and falsehoods against the Jewish people and their traditions. Readers are compelled to continue reading to find out what happens next since the title character is so indulgent. Being a Jew, Josephus takes on the duty of defending Judaism and its antiquity against Apion's malicious charges. He challenges Apion's charges with carefully documented data and reasoned arguments that verify the legitimacy and venerable heritage of Jewish religion and culture. One of the key themes of "Against Apion" is the refutation of the idea that Jews were a recent and inferior the group when compared to other ancient countries. Josephus emphasizes the ancient origins of Jewish practices, laws, and traditions, dating them back to the dawn of time. Furthermore, Josephus argues for Jewish culture's moral and intellectual superiority, rejecting Apion's claims of Jewish brutality and ignorance.

Book Synopsis The Construct of Identity in Hellenistic Judaism by : Erich S. Gruen
Download or read book The Construct of Identity in Hellenistic Judaism written by Erich S. Gruen and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2016-09-12 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book collects twenty two previously published essays and one new one by Erich S. Gruen who has written extensively on the literature and history of early Judaism and the experience of the Jews in the Greco-Roman world. His many articles on this subject have, however, appeared mostly in conference volumes and Festschriften, and have therefore not had wide circulation. By putting them together in a single work, this will bring the essays to the attention of a much broader scholarly readership and make them more readily available to students in the fields of ancient history and early Judaism. The pieces are quite varied, but develop a number of connected and related themes: Jewish identity in the pagan world, the literary representations by Jews and pagans of one another, the interconnections of Hellenism and Judaism, and the Jewish experience under Hellenistic monarchies and the Roman empire.

Book excerpt: THE family from which I am derived is not an ignoble one, but hath descended all along from the priests; and as nobility among several people is of a different origin, so with us to be of the sacerdotal dignity, is an indication of the splendor of a family. Now, I am not only sprung from a sacerdotal family in general, but from the first of the twenty-four courses; and as among us there is not only a considerable difference between one family of each course and another, I am of the chief family of that first course also; nay, further, by my mother I am of the royal blood; for the children of Asamoneus, from whom that family was derived, had both the office of the high priesthood, and the dignity of a king, for a long time together. I will accordingly set down my progenitors in order. Aeterna Press
