About the Book

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.

Review :
"Den Hg.n ist zu danken, dass sie die vorliegende Sammlung von Beiträgen, die Erich S. Gruen seit 1993 veröffentlicht hat, in die Reihe Deuterocanonicol and Cognate Literature Studies aufgenommen haben. Damit ist zu hoffen, dass der Band eine möglichst breite Leserschaft finden wird. [...] Der Vf. schafft es, einen neuen Blick auf bekannte Quellen zu werfen, aber auch eher unbekannte Quellen zu erschließen. Aus den einzelnen, oftmals an (aus theologischer Sicht) entlegenen Orten veröffentlichten Beiträgen wird durch die Zusammenstellung ein faszinierendes Werk, dessen Lektüre zu fesseln vermag [...] Dieses Werk darf in keiner wissenschaftlichen theologischen Bibliothek fehlen." Hans Förster in: Theologische Revuew, Jahrgang 113 (2017), Nr. 6, S. 465-466
