McCullough, W.Stewart HISTORY AND LITERATURE OF THE PALESTINIAN JEWS FROM CYRUS TO HEROD 550 BC to 4 BC
University of Toronto Press 1975 0802053173 / 9780802053176 Hardcover Very Good with no dust jacket
Ex-library copy with usual stamps, call numbers and pocket. ; Examines Jewish history against the background of the successive kingdoms which conrolled Judea. From the time of Cyrus to the time of Herod, except for a brief period of independence in the second and first centuries BC, it was subservient to either the Persians, the Hellenistic kingdoms, or the Romans. The author discusses the political situation in Judea and the social and economic conditions in so far as we can know them, and the early literary and religious developments. He then moves on to a discussion of the literature of the second and first centuries BC: the scholarly and pietistic traditions, apocalyptic and historical writings, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the completion of the canon. ; 256 pages
