Me being a Jew of priest blood and sharing the author’s name Yosef, really enjoyed reading these proofs of the antiquity of my nation which after all these millennia filled with persecution we are still standing strong
My Thoughts
This book compiles the writings of Josephus to Epiphoditus and confutes the writings of such as the Greeks and Egyptians as Apion, Manetho and others who accuse the Jews, and he shows us how false their claims really are.
I personally would not highly recommend this book simply because I don’t like to read confutation-types of books, but Josephus is mentioned by certain preachers and commentators on the Bible. So, I say that any who like debating and such, read this book and any people such as even myself who want to read commentaries, please read this book so that you will know what people are talking about.
A historical and theosophical classic.
Thank you so much for having this available! No christian should feel complete in their understanding of the bible without knowing of the arguments and debates that shaped our faith.
