The Jewish-Greek tradition represents an arguably distinctive
strand of Judaism characterized by use of the Greek language and
interest in Hellenism. This volume traces the Jewish encounter with
Greek culture from the earliest points of contact in antiquity to
the end of the Byzantine Empire. It honors Nicholas de Lange, whose
distinguished work brought recognition to an undeservedly neglected
field, in part by dispelling the common belief that Jewish-Greek
culture largely disappeared after 100 CE. The authors examine
literature, archaeology, and biblical translations, such as the
Septuagint, in order to illustrate the substantial exchange of
language and ideas. The Jewish-Greek Tradition in Antiquity and the
Byzantine Empire demonstrates the enduring significance of the
tradition and will be an essential handbook for anyone interested
in Jewish studies, biblical studies, ancient and Byzantine history,
or the Greek language.
