Focusing on recent discoveries, this volume reshapes our understanding of Judaism during the Hellenistic Era, particularly Second Temple Judaism. Professor Stone synthesizes findings from the last thirty years, revealing the intricate dynamics of this period, including its interactions with Gnosticism and Hellenism, as well as the origins of apocalyptic thought. The work is both scholarly and accessible, offering a fresh perspective for readers interested in the evolution of postbiblical Judaism and its influence on early Christianity.
