Early Jewish Literature: An Anthology offers more than seventy
selections from Second Temple-era Jewish literature, each
introduced and translated by a leading scholar in the field.
Organized by genre, this two-volume anthology presents both
complete works and substantial excerpts of longer works, giving
readers a solid introduction to the major works of the era-the Dead
Sea Scrolls, the Old Testament Pseudepigrapha, the writings of
Josephus and Philo of Alexandria, and the Septuagint (Apocrypha).
The substantive introduction to each selection includes these
elements: narrative description; author/provenance; date/occasion;
text, language, sources, and transmission; theology; and reception
during the Second Temple period. Additional student aids include a
list of further readings on each selection, a section of maps, a
glossary of biographical names, and a glossary of terms. With
contributors and translators including such noted scholars as James
Charlesworth, Sidnie White Crawford, James D. G. Dunn, Peter W.
Flint, and James VanderKam, this anthology will be an essential
resource for all students of early Jewish literature and emerging
Christian traditions.
