Publisher's Synopsis
The Jewish Apologetic to the Grecian World in the Apocryphal and Pseudepigraphical Literature is a book written by Isaac George Matthews in 1914. The book explores the apologetic writings of Jewish authors in response to the influence of Greek culture and philosophy on Judaism during the Hellenistic period. Matthews analyzes various texts from the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha, including the Wisdom of Solomon, the Book of Enoch, and the Testament of the Twelve Patriarchs, to examine the ways in which Jewish writers attempted to reconcile their faith with the Hellenistic worldview. The book provides a thorough examination of the historical context in which these texts were written and the theological debates that they reflect. Overall, The Jewish Apologetic to the Grecian World in the Apocryphal and Pseudepigraphical Literature is a valuable resource for scholars of Jewish history, religion, and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
