Exploring Philo’s God and Jewish Thought in a Hellenistic World
This book analyzes Philo’s approach to God, worship, and the relationship between Judaism and Greek philosophy. It also surveys how Philo speaks about paganism, cult practices, and the personal God within a broader ancient world.
- Learn how Philo distinguishes the supreme, self-originating power from lesser gods.
- See how Jewish devotion to a personal, merciful God sits beside abstract Greek ideas of divinity.
- Understand Philo’s critique of idolatry and his treatment of pagan cult imagery.
- Discover how the edition frames Philo with bibliography, translations, and key scholarly discussions.
Ideal for readers of Jewish thought, late antique philosophy, and Philo studies seeking a concise, context-rich introduction.
