Description
1831 Flavius JOSEPHUS Jewish War Judaism Antiquities of Jews English Whiston



“And when the book of Daniel was showed to Alexander the Great, wherein Daniel declared that one of the Greeks should destroy the empire of the Persians, he supposed that himself was the person intended.”

– Josephus, Antiquity of the Jews



Flavius Josephus’s most important and famous work was his historical account of the Jewish people, ‘Antiquities of the Jews.’ This work is one of the most referenced works regarding the history and origins of the Jewish faith, providing history beyond what is found in the Bible.



This undated English edition by William Whiston and then Samuel Burder is particularly desirable and includes 18 leaves of plates. Whiston and Burder added notes and commentary to this translation that would reappear in editions throughout the 1700s and 1800s.
