Flavius Josephus Zitate

Flavius Josephus war ein römisch-jüdischer Geschichtsschreiber. Er verfasste seine Werke in griechischer Sprache, zum Teil aber zunächst in seiner aramäischen Muttersprache.

Josephus ist neben Philon von Alexandria der wichtigste Autor des hellenistischen Judentums. Er schloss sich, obwohl seiner Herkunft nach den Sadduzäern nahestehend, früh den Pharisäern an. Wikipedia
