520 | |a "Josephus' Antiquities introduces Moses as the Jewish lawgiver, adapting the biblical account for a new audience. But who was that audience, and what did they understand by the term lawgiver ?

This method reveals patterns of appeal and challenge in Josephus' intriguing and lively account of Moses' legislative activities"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
