Download Philo of Alexandria - An Exegete for His Time Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Philo's writings are a comprehensive and important source of late Second Temple Judaism. This volume gives important insights into his exegetical works. The structure of the books and their exegetical ideas are seen here as being closely connected and his writings are analysed against the background of the history, variety and outlook of Alexandrian Jewry. Philo's exegesis is a meeting place between Jewish and Greek notions and ideas; tensions are reflected, such as those between particularism and universalism, between specific biblical and historical earthly events and general macro- and micro-cosmic principles, and between heavenly ascents and interpreted history and eschatology. In addition, glimpses are gained of community life in a Hellenistic Jewish community, especially of issues on the borderline between Jews and their non-Jewish surroundings. New Testament material illuminates Philo's broader Jewish context, and in turn Philo throws light on New Testament backgrounds.

Download The Works of Philo Judaeus Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
A powerful collection of writings in which Philo attempts to consolidate Jewish beliefs with Greek philosophy in the end Hellenising the Hebrew Bible. Many early church fathers actually owe their thinking and interpretation ways to Philo since he paved the way for philosophical thinking and the teachings of the Hebrew Bible. Although it is unclear as to how much he influence someone like the apostle Paul, some consider it likely since they both lived and taught during the same early forming of the first church. This book includes: On Creation, Allegorical Interpretation I, II & III, The Cheribum, Of Cain and his Birth, On the Birth of Abel, That the Worse is Wont to Attack the Better, On the Posterity of Cain and his Exile, On the Giants, On the Unchangeableness of God, On Husbandry, Concerning Noah's Work as a Planter, On Drunkeness, On the Prayers and Curses Uttered by Noah, On the Confusion of Tongues, On the Migration of Abraham and Who is the Heir of Divine Things.

Philo, known also as Philo of Alexandria, Philo Judaeus, and Philo the Jew, among other names, was a Hellenistic Jewish philosopher who lived in Alexandria from 20 BC to 50 CE. Philo's works are most known for being allegorical interpretations of the Scriptures, fusing Jewish thought to Stoic philosophy. Although not widely accepted in his time, his vast collection of works had a powerful influence on early Christian theology and especially on later Christian writers like Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Saint Jerome and Athenagorus. Despite being a devout Jew, some saw in Philo a cryptic Christian. This is the first of four volumes of "The Works of Philo," and contains many of his cosmogenic and historical works addressing various topics in Genesis like "On the Creation of the World," "On the Allegories of the Sacred Laws," "Of Cain and His Birth," and "On the Unchangeableness of God."

This book covers the first 500 years of the common era. These years witnessed the revivals of Aristotelianism, Epicureanism, Pyrrhonism, Cynicism, and Pythagoreanism; but by far the most important movement was the revival of Platonism under Plotinus. Here, the historical context of Plotinus is provided including the currents of thought that preceded him and opened the path for him. The presuppositions of the Enneads are made explicit and the thought of Plotinus is reconstructed. The author reorients the expositions of Middle Platonism and neo-Pythagoreanism. He provides a full exposition of Hermeticism and the doctrines of the Chaldean Oracles. He also defends the notion that Philo of Alexandria nourished a Jewish philosophy, not an eclectic mixture.
