The present volume, consisting of 35 studies of various portions of
Josephus' "Jewish Antiquities," is an attempt to examine the oldest
systematic commentary on the historical books of the Bible that has
come down to us. It considers how Josephus resolves apparent
contradictions, obscurities, and theological and other questions,
as well as the historicity of biblical events, which have puzzled
classical commentators on the Bible. It attempts to explain cases,
notably Ahab, Hezekiah, Jehoiachin, and Zedekiah, where Josephus
seems to change the biblical text radically. Included are Josephus'
interpretations of several phrophets, women and non-Jewish leaders.
All of these studies have previously appeared in print over a
period of almost three decades in 34 different publications.
However, they have been edited, corrected, and updated in many
ways.
