The present collection of articles redresses this imbalance by bringing together scholars from different fields and offering prioneering essays, which cross traditional boundaries and interpret Biblical and Homeric interpreters in light of each other. The picture which emerges from these studies in highly complex: Greek, Jewish and Christian readers were concerned with similar literary and religious questions, often defining their own position in dialogue with others. Special attention is given to three central corpora: the Alexandrian scholia, Philo, Platonic writers of the Imperial Age, rabbinic exegesis.Jerusalem studies in religion and culture ;v. 16.Classical literatureClassical literature.809/.01Niehoff Maren282895MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790253303321Homer and the Bible in the eyes of ancient interpreters3798368UNINA
