Emil Schurer's "Geschichte des judischen Volkes im Zeitalter Jesu
Christi," originally published in German between 1874 and 1909 and
in English between 1885 and 1891, is a critical presentation of
Jewish history, institutions, and literature from 175 B.C. to A.D.
135. It has rendered invaluable services to scholars for nearly a
century.The present work offers a fresh translation and a revision
of the entire subject-matter. The bibliographies have been
rejuvenated and supplemented; the sources are presented according
to the latest scholarly editions; and all the new archaeological,
epigraphical, numismatic and literary evidence, including the Dead
Sea Scrolls and the Bar Kokhba documents, has been introduced into
the survey. Account has also been taken of the progress in
historical research, both in the classical and Jewish fields. This
work reminds students of the profound debt owed to
nineteenth-century learning, setting it within a wider framework of
contemporary knowledge, and provides a foundation on which future
historians of Judaism in the age of Jesus may build.
