This is the fourth and fi nal volume of Lester L. Grabbe's
four-volume history of the Second Temple period, collecting all
that is known about the Jews during the period in which they were
ruled by the Roman Empire. Based directly on primary sources such
as archaeology, inscriptions, Jewish literary sources and Greek,
Roman and Christian sources, this study includes analysis of the
Jewish diaspora, mystical and Gnosticism trends, and the
developments in the Temple, the law, and contemporary attitudes
towards Judaism. Spanning from the reign of Herod Archelaus to the
war with Rome and Roman control up to 150 CE, this volume concludes
with Grabbe's holistic perspective on the Jews and Judaism in the
Second Temple Period.
