About the Book

Elias J. Bickerman, who passed away a quarter of a century ago, was one of the twentieth century's great historians of the ancient world. His innovative genius and breathtaking erudition are evident in his writings, many of which are now considered classics. Bickerman's contributions to the history of ancient Judaism and early Christianity remain particularly significant but his three volume collection, Studies in Jewish and Christian History, has been out of print for some time. Thus, the publication of this new edition of Studies, now entirely in English, along with Bickerman's most famous book, The God of the Maccabees, is designed to bring Bickerman's central studies on ancient Judaism and early Christianity to a new generation of students and scholars.

Review :
'Die Aufsätze Bickermans bedürfen keiner Empfehlung. B. gehört zu den herausragenden Althistorikern des vergangenen Jh.s.Viele seiner Arbeiten aus dem engeren Bereich des hellenistischen Judentums und der Geschichte des frühen Christentums sind Klassiker geworden. Werke also, die selbst bedeutsam bleiben, wenn Einzelheiten heute anders gesehen werden. B. überblickt nicht nur die Literatur der klassischen Antike, epigraphische und papyrologische Zeugnisse, seine Verweise auf die Auslegungsgeschichte sammeln Ergebnisse des rabbinischen Judentums, des gelehrten Abendlandes von den Kirchenvätern bis zu den aktuellen Forschungen aus B.s Zeit und stellen sie unprätentiös und sachlich gegliedert vor... B.s Studien liegen nun zum zweiten Mal gesammelt vor...Alle Aufsätze sind Tiefbohrungen, die in einschlägigen Studien und Handbüchern verhandelt werden. Wer auf einen Aufsatz gestoßen ist, wird im Sammelband zum Weiterlesen verführt...Die Werke B.s werden auch in Jahrzehnten noch wichtig bleiben.' Theo K. Heckel, Theologische Literaturzeitung135, 2010 'Bickerman was a scholar of remarkable gifts and the studies in these volumes exhibit them to the full...' G.I. Davues, Society for Old Testament Studies, 1987. '...un excellent instrument de travail, indispensable aux bibliothèques et aux spécialistes.' Revue Biblique, 1988. '...eine knappe, eindrückliche Würdigung des großen jüdischen Gelehrten.' T.H., Theologische Literaturzeitung, 1989. 'These essays constitute an enduring monument to one of the finest scholars of antiquity in this generation.' John J. Collins, Religious Studies Review, 1988. 'Bickerman est un historien, particulièrement attentif aux renconctres entre les peuples, let Etats et les cultures.' J. Guillet, Recherches de Science Religieuse, 1989. '...a worthy memorial to an outstanding scholar of the ancient world...' Geza Vermes, Journal of Jewish Studies, 1987.
