Second Temple Judaism

 


Discovering Second Temple Literature: The Scriptures and Stories That Shaped Early Judaism by Malka Zeiger Simkovich is a refreshing walk though the Second Temple written record. This time was a time of transition (most times are) so it is great to see the different ideas and shades of Judaism that existed in once place.  The Judaism of that day spanned the entire range of the Greco-Roman world, and then some.  We should all be aware of this!
