This is Volume 1 of the complete works of Flavius Josephus, including his autobiography. Josephus was a first-century Romano-Jewish historian and military leader, best known for The Jewish War, which recounts the Jewish revolt against Roman occupation (66â"70 CE). His other major work, Antiquities of the Jews, presents a Jewish perspective on world history for a Greco-Roman audience. These works provide valuable insight into Jewish history and the complex relationship between Jews and Romans during a pivotal period. Josephus’s writings remain essential resources for understanding the historical and cultural context of the Bible and the rise of Christianity.
