standard
introduction up
to date . . .
Throughout
Christian
history, the
works of
Josephus have
been mined for
the light they
shed on the
world of the New
Testament.
Josephus tells
us about the
Herodian family,
the temple, the
Pharisees, the
Sadducees, and
the Essenes. He
mentions James
the brother of
Jesus, John the
Baptist, and
even Jesus
himself. In
Josephus and the
New Testament,
an
internationally
acknowledged
authority on
Josephus
introduces this
first-century
Jewish historian
to readers who
want to begin to
explore his
witness to
environment in
which early
Judaism and
Christianity
took shape. |
