The Jews of Egypt : From Ramses II to Emperor Hadrian Hardback
by Joseph Meleze Modrzejewski
Hardback
Description
This is the story of the adventures and misadventures of the Jewish people in the land of Egypt.
The author uses the clear light of scientific analysis and archaeological research to illuminate the reality underlying the images from the Biblical accounts and Jewish and pagan literary texts, through the great “love affair” between Jews and Hellenic culture.
It ends with the brief but crucial episode when budding Christianity and the Alexandrian Jews parted company.
