Reviews for Early Jewish Literature: An Anthology

"Booklist ""A solid resource for scholars of Jewish literature, but it will also be of interest to those who study the New Testament."" The Christian Librarian ""This work exhibits the high literary productivity of the period; highlights the diversity between different Jewish groups; and offers insight into contemporary social, political, and theological currents.""

Complete glossaries and indices ensure the utility of this welcome contribution."""
