Runia. 330 $aThe Jewish exegete and philosopher Philo of Alexandria has long been famous for his allegorical treatises on the Greek Bible. The present volume contains the first translation and commentary in English on his treatise De agricultura ( On cultivation ), which gives an elaborate allegorical interpretation of Genesis 9:20. Noah?s role as a cultivator is analysed in terms of the ethical and spiritual quest of the soul making progress towards its goal. The translation renders Philo?s baroque Greek into readable modern English. The commentary pays particular attention to the treatise?s structure, its biblical basis and its exegetical and philosophical contents. The volume will be valuable for the insights it gives into an unusual but highly influential method of biblical interpretation. 410 0$aPhilo of Alexandria Commentary Series$v4. 606 $aPhilosophy, Ancient 615 0$aPhilosophy, Ancient. 676 $a222.11068 700 $aPhilo$cof Alexandria.$0845271 701 $aGeljon$b Albert C$01513094 701 $aRunia$b David T$0152904 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786571903321 996 $aPhilo of Alexandria, on cultivation$93747338 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00992nam 2200289z- 450 001 9910689486003321 005 20161209095858.0 035 $a(CKB)5860000000024460 035 $a(BIP)058840685 035 $a(EXLCZ)995860000000024460 100 $a20220406c2000uuuu -u- - 101 0 $aeng 200 10$aH.
