This volume traces the Jewish encounter with Greek culture from the earliest points of contact in antiquity to the end of the Byzantine Empire. It honors Nicholas de Lange, whose distinguished work brought recognition to an undeservedly neglected field, in part by dispelling the common belief that Jewish-Greek culture largely disappeared after 100 CE. The authors examine literature, archaeology, and biblical translations, such as the Septuagint, in order to illustrate the substantial exchange of language and ideas. The Jewish-Greek Tradition in Antiquity and the Byzantine Empire demonstrates the enduring significance of the tradition and will be an essential handbook for anyone interested in Jewish studies, biblical studies, ancient and Byzantine history, or the Greek language"-- OP - 359 CN - DS113 .J49 2014eb SN - 9781316072363 SN - 1316072363 SN - 9781316077092 SN - 1316077098 SN - 9780511736223 SN - 0511736223 SN - 9781316074725 SN - 1316074722 SN - 9781107001633 SN - 1107001633 KW - Bible. : Greek : Versions.
