This book is an analysis of prayer in the works of Flavius Josephus. The author discusses both Josephus’ views on prayer and his use of prayers within the narrative context. The first part of the book therefore deals with the two passages that Josephus himself wrote on prayer. The second part represents a detailed analysis of 32 prayers selected (mainly) from Antiquitates Judaicae, as to content, context and relation to their source text (if any), revealing the variety of narrative and theological functions that they fulfil. The study also indicates the significance of Josephus’ use of terminology derived from the Graeco-Roman world. New light is thus shed on Josephus’ historiographic method as well as on his view of God.

This is the first English commentary on Josephus’ Against Apion, his apologetic treatise which rebuts Egyptian and Hellenistic slurs on the Judean people. Accompanied by a new translation, the commentary provides full analysis of the historical, literary, and rhetorical features of the treatise, and analyses its engagement with the cultural politics of the ancient world.

The collection, which includes a concordance by H. Schreckenberg of the Latin section Contra Apionem 2.52-113, forms a standard, indispensable resource for the study of Josephus' writings, of apologetic literature in general, and particularly for the study of Contra Apionem, one of the most significant apologetic treatises in Antiquity.

This first publication to emerge from the Society of Biblical Literature's seminar group on prayer in the Greco-Roman period includes, in addition to the editor, contributions by Barbara E. Bowe, Barbara E. Reid, Agneta Enermalm-Ogawa, Mark Harding, Mark S. Kiley, and Steven F. Plymale. The opening chapter addresses some of Joachim Jeremias's contentions concerning Luke's shortened version of the Lord's Prayer. Linguistic and thematic affinities between the Matthean version of the Lord's Prayer and the sayings in the Sermon on the Mount are then considered, as is the Prayer of Simeon and its relation to the sanctioning power of prayer texts in Luke-Acts. After revisiting Jesus' transfiguration experience to determine what really happened, the book turns to the prayers and benedictions in Josephus's Antiquities and to the long prayer that concludes 1 Clement. An exhaustive bibliography on the Lord's Prayer and other prayer texts from the Greco-Roman period comprises the second half of the book. Beginning with a stylistic and genre analysis, the bibliography lists general studies, Hebrew Bible, Jewish texts, New Testament, early Christian texts, magical texts, Gnostic, Hermetic, Manichaean, and Madaean texts, and papyri and inscriptions.
