Antiquities of the Jews (Complete and Unabridged) is a historiographical work composed by the Jewish historian Flavius Josephus in the 13th year of the reign of Roman emperor Flavius Domitian which was around AD 93 or 94.
Antiquities of the Jews contains an account of history of the Jewish people, written in Greek for Josephus’ gentile patrons. In the first ten volumes, Josephus follows the events of the historical books of the Hebrew Bible beginning with the creation of Adam and Eve. The second ten volumes continue the history of the Jewish people beyond the biblical text and up to the Jewish War.
One of the best known translations of this work was provided by William Whiston in 1737, which has been in print continuously since then.
This work, along with Josephus’s other major work, The Jewish Wars, provides valuable background material to anyone wishing to understand first-century Judaism and the early Christian period.
