The period chosen for this study is that represented by the global
domination of Hellenism, from the conquest of Palestine by
Alexander the Great in the second half of the 4th century BC until
the seizure of the land by the Arabs in the 7th century AD. In the
encounter with Hellenism which confronted the Jews of Palestine in
the form of Greek, Roman and finally Christian supremacy, a Judaism
developed which had far outgrown its biblical origins and which was
to influence the history of Europe from the Middle Ages to present
day. This text examines the political history of the Jewish people
in Palestine in terms of political activity and more particularly
social, economics and religious circumstances. The Jews of
antiquity are presented as both the subject and the object of
history as they attempt to achieve their political and social goals
in a variety of changing circumstances.
