description: The History of the Jews in the Greco-Roman World examines Judaism in Palestine throughout the Hellenistic age, from Alexander the Great's conquest in 334 BC to its capture by the Arabs in AD 636. Under the Greek, Roman and finally Christian supremacy which Hellenism imposed, Judaism developed far beyond its biblical origins into a form which was to influence European history from the Middle Ages to the present day. The book focuses particularly on social, economic and religious concerns, and the political status of the Jews as both active agents and passive victims of history.
