Book excerpt: This collection includes a selection of research articles dealing with the interplay between Judaism and Hellenism in Eretz Israel (The Land of Israel), resulting in lasting effects left by Greece and Rome upon the society, creative spirit, and material culture of the land. Among the topics dealt with are: the interrelationships of Jews and Gentiles; the roots and forms taken by anti-Semitism in the Hellenistic and Roman world; military and political events, issues in ancient historiography, economics, administration, and jurisprudence; ancient construction projects in light of recent archaeological discoveries, and more.
