This is the second volume of the projected four-volume history of
the Second Temple period. It is axiomatic that there are large gaps
in the history of the Persian period, but the early Greek period is
possibly even less known. This volume brings together all we know
about the Jews during the period from Alexander's conquest to the
eve of the Maccabaean revolt, including the Jews in Egypt as well
as the situation in Judah. Based directly on the primary sources,
which are surveyed, the study addresses questions such as
administration, society, religion, economy, jurisprudence,
Hellenism and Jewish identity.These are discussed in the context of
the wider Hellenistic world and its history. A strength of the
study is its extensive up-to-date secondary bibliography
(approximately one thousand items).
