Philo of Alexandria: A Thinker in the Jewish DiasporaMireille Hadas-Lebel BRILL, 26 ביולי 2012 - 241 עמודים Philo (20BCE?-45CE?) is the most illustrious son of Alexandrian Jewry and the first major scholar to combine a deep Jewish learning with Greek philosophy. His unique allegorical exegesis of the Greek Bible was to have a profound influence on the early fathers of the Church. Philo was, above all, a philosopher, but he was also intensely practical in his defence of the Jewish faith and law in general, and that of Alexandria s embattled Jewish community in particular. A famous example was his leadership of a perilous mission to plead the community s cause to Emperor Caligula. This monograph provides a guide to Philo's life, his thought and his action, as well as his continuing influence on theological and philosophical thought. |
