Israeli Jews' response to and appropriation of Greek culture is the
subject of the essays in this rich volume. Contributors provide
evidence of Greek cultural influence in Judea and Galilee, from
before the Maccabean revolt into the rabbinic period. They also
probe the limits of that influence, the persistence of Semitic
languages and thought patterns, and the exclusiveness of Jewish
religion. While Greek thought had a significant impact on Judaism,
Jews remained distinct in the Greco-Roman world. Hellenistic
Judaism's relationship to Greek culture was never simply one of
assimilation or repudiation. Similarly, the Hebrew and
Aramaic-speaking Judaism of the homeland remained distinct from the
Hellenistic Judaism of the Diaspora.
