{"product_id":"hellenistic-civilization-and-the-jews-victor-tcherikover-9780801047855","title":"Hellenistic Civilization and the Jews","description":"The encounter between Jews and Greeks marked one of the most revolutionary meetings in the ancient world, for in that encounter politics, economics, culture, and religion changed dramatically. Victor Tcherikover, who devoted his entire scholarly life to the study of the Hellenistic period, offers here a benchmark assessment of that encounter. In this reprinted edition of his most famous work, including a new preface by University of Chicago Professor John J. Collins, Tcherikover uniquely combines \"analyses of two of the most intriguing episodes of Jewish history in antiquity: the events that led to the Maccabean rebellion and the struggle for rights in Alexandria in the first century CE\" (from the preface).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Victor Tcherikover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0801047854\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780801047855\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Baker Academic \u0026amp; Brazos Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/05\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 563\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.39h x 5.47w x 1.21d","brand":"Victor Tcherikover","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926108340479,"sku":"9780801047855","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_7196a7b1-9bac-4fe5-9163-0f89fb55d7ef.jpg?v=1681081248","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hellenistic-civilization-and-the-jews-victor-tcherikover-9780801047855","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
