Product Description

Next to the Bible, Josephus' description of the people and events in the Old and New Testaments are the most authoritative ancient source yet sometimes the most difficult to understand. This is an updated, full-color edition of Josephus: The Essential Writings. The Jewish Antiquities and The Jewish War of Josephus take on a brilliant new dimension in this revised edition of the award-winning translation and condensation that boasts ninety-one full-color photos, 21 maps and charts, and 19 insightful sidebar discussions. All of this helps to bring the biblical world to life. This work is also thoroughly indexed and keyed to the Loeb Classical Library's numbering of the Greek text of Josephus.

Author Bio

Flavius Josphus (c. A.D. 37-100) was born to an aristocratic Jewish family, served as a priest, and later became the commander of Jewish forces in Galilee following the revolt against Rome that began A.D. 66. Captured by the Romans, Josephus spent his later life in Rome under the patronage of the Roman emperors where he composed his history of the Jewish people and his account of the Jewish war that led to the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple in A.D. 70. Paul L. Maier is the Russell H. Seibert Professor of Ancient History at Western Michigan University. In 1984 he was named "Professor of the Year" as one of America's twenty-five finest educators. His other works include the award-winning Josephus: The Essential Works, Eusebius: The Church History; In the Fullness of Time; Pontius Pilate; and The Flames of Rome.
