Description

This scholarly collection examines how biblical authors in Genesis through 2 Kings drew inspiration from Classical and Hellenistic Greek texts when composing the Primary History. Through detailed textual analysis, the essays demonstrate that numerous narratives show clear influence from late classical and Hellenistic literature, with thematic, semantic, and stylistic parallels too extensive to arise from coincidence or common ancient convention. By deconstructing biblical and Greek works in parallel, the contributors argue that the similarities in narrative structure, characterisation, and meaning reveal deliberate literary engagement between Hebrew scriptures and Greek sources. This Copenhagen International Seminar publication offers scholars and students of biblical literature, ancient history, and comparative textual studies a rigorous examination of cross-cultural literary influences during the Hellenistic period and their impact on the formation of the Hebrew Bible.
