Notes: " ... found in only two manuscripts at the British Library, the full version in Or. Add. 14.658, and the far shorter version, comprising only a small fraction of the text, in Or. Add. 14.614. The goal of this work is to present a commentary on the text in its complete version focusing on parallels from both Jewish tradition and from the Greco-Roman world"--Preface.
