Extractions: Josephus Flavius Josephus Flavius was a Jew who grew up in Jerusalem at the beginning of the Common Era. He was well educated, knowing both Jewish texts and the Greek language (although his Greek grammar was faulty). During the Great Revolt from 66-73 CE, Josephus served as a general of the Galilee. When the Roman army overcame his forces, Josephus and 40 compatriots fled to a cave. They agreed to commit suicide. Josephus fixed the lots so that his name would come out last. After the others killed themselves, Josephus convinced the remaining fighter to surrender with him. As a prisoner of the Romans , Josephus volunteered to write the history of the Great Revolt . General (later Emperor) Vespasian agreed. Josephus thus provided the Romans (and now us) with a first-hand account of the fall of Jerusalem in 70 CE. It must be emphasized that Josephus was writing for Vespasian, so his work is definitely biased. He mentions several times in his Greek writings that he created an Aramaic version of the events as well, but it, unfortunately, is not extant. Following the end of the war, Josephus was taken to

Extractions: Flavius Josephus (often known simply as Josephus), was born in Jerusalem as Joseph ben Matthias ("Joseph, son of Matthias") about 37 A.D., and he died in Rome around 60 years later. His life was at times a curious contradiction - he was Jew and Roman, soldier and writer, priestly and carnal, loyal and opportunistic. Although not part of The Bible , his writings nevertheless provide a great amount of valuable eyewitness information relating to Bible History during the Roman period (see Ancient Empires - Rome Josephus was born into a prominent family, and by his early teens he became associated with the Pharisees, one of the groups who, several years before Josephus was born, had been among the most bitter opponents of Jesus Christ. In 64 A.D. Josephus traveled to Rome as part of a group seeking the release of several Jewish priests who were imprisoned there. Despite his mission, he became impressed with the Roman grandeur and military power of the time (see Roman Legions and Roman Roads ). Later, even though he fought as a military commander with his countrymen against the Romans in the revolt of Judea in 66-70, he became a Roman citizen, and through a combination of luck and skillful slyness managed to become a favorite of the emperor Vespasian (see

http://cr.middlebury.edu/public/russian/bulgakov/public_html/Josephus.html

Extractions: Flavius Josephus (37-7? AD), was a Jewish priest in command in Galilee at the time of the Jewish Revolt. After being taken captive, he retired to Rome and wrote a history of the war in Aramaic, of which we have the Greek translation: The Jewish War (75-79). His next work, Antiquities , is a history of the Jews. While Berlioz claims that Josephus never mentions Jesus, in fact the Antiquities includes a reference to Christ. Because the pro-Christian tenor of this passage sounded odd in the writings of a Jewish priest, proponents of the Mythological School tried to show that the passage was a later insertion by Christian writers. But by the time Bulgakov was writing, the authenticity of the passage had been proven, showing that Christ was indeed a historical figure. Antiquities , Book 18, Ch. 3 : 3. Now there was about this time Jesus, a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man; for he was a doer of wonderful works, a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both many of the Jews and many of the Gentiles. He was [the] Christ. And when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men amongst us, had condemned him to the cross, those that loved him at the first did not forsake him; for he appeared to them alive again the third day; as the divine prophets had foretold these and ten thousand other wonderful things concerning him. And the tribe of Christians, so named from him, are not extinct at this day. (Tr. William Whiston)

Suceeded Newton at Cambridge in 1703. ... His translation appeared 1737. ... He became a convinced Arian ... which led to loss of his professorship. ... He held that the Tatars were the lost tribe and believed that the millennium would begin in 1766." 2.

http://latter-rain.com/ltrain/josephus.htm

Extractions: Josephus Josephus was a Jewish historian and lived from AD 37-100. He was born at Jerusalem in 37 or possibly 38, narrowly missing being Jesus' contemporary. He tells us that Jesus came into prominence about the time a popular uprising opposed Pilate's attempts to use temple revenues to improve Jerusalem water supply, that Jesus was a wise man and a doer of wonderful works. Josephus turned collaborationist at the time of the Roman invasion of Palestine 67-70. Born as the son of a priestly aristocratic family, at the age of 19 Josephus allied himself to the Pharisaic party. He says he had belonged to the Alexandrian Jews of the Diaspora. Josephus had an extensive education in Jewish and Greek culture in Rome. He wrote that when he was 14 years old, he was already famous in Jerusalem for his knowledge of the Law and that the chief priests and other notables would consult him on difficult questions. When it came to himself, Josephus was prone to flattery. Victory only fleeting, Josephus was ultimately captured and prophesied that Vespasian would be emperor. Vespasian released him, and gradually accepted him as a useful advisor in the war against the Jews. When Vespasian left for Alexandria, Josephus accompanied Titus to the siege of Jerusalem. He later attained questionable honors as historian at the court of Domitian.

Extractions: by David Brewer Flavius Josephus was born Joseph ben Matthias in Jerusalem around 37 AD. He joined a sect of the Pharisees, and was selected by the Sanhedrin to govern Galilee. In AD 66, he participated in the Jewish revolt against Roman rule, finally surrendering to Vespasian in 67. He won favor and his freedom from the Romans, changed his name to Flavius, and eventually settled in Rome where he wrote under the patronage of Emperors Titus and Domitian. A scholar in both Hebrew and Greek literature who served as a general, Josephus lived much of what he covers in his writings. His insights make him a very valuable authority for one who is studying NT times. His works include: "Concerning the Jewish War" there are 7 books in this work. Book 1 175 B.C. - 4 B.C. Book 2 4 B.C. to 66 A.D. Book 3 events in Galilee in 66 A.D. Book 4 the events of the War up until the siege of Jerusalem. Book 5 and 6 the fall of Jerusalem. Book 7 the aftermath of the rebellion following the fall of Jerusalem. Even though this "work is not written with the objective accuracy of scientific history, it is credible on the whole, except where it concerns the role played by the author."

http://www.christianstudycenter.com/refs/bios/josephus.htm

Extractions: Died c. A.D. 100, Rome "About this time there lived Jesus, a wise man, if indeed one ought to call him a man. For he has one who wrought surprising feats and was a teacher of such people as accept the truth gladly. He won over many Jews and many of the Greeks. He was the Christ. When Pilate, upon hearing him accused by men of the highest standing among us, had condemned him to be crucified, those who had in the first place come to love him did not give up their affection for him. On the third day he appeared to them restored to life, for the prophets of God had prophesied these countless other marvelous things about him. And the tribe of Christians, so called after him, has still to this day not disappeared." Josephus, The Antiquities, Book 18.63-64. Early Life Flavius Josephus was born Joseph Ben Matthias, of an aristocratic priestly family in Jerusalem. According to his own account, he was an intelligent youth who, by the age of 14, was consulted by high priests in matters of Jewish law. At age 16 he undertook a three-year journey in the wilderness with the hermit Bannus, a ascetic Jewish sect member that flourished in Judea around the time of Christ. Returning to Jerusalem, he joined the Phariseesa fact of crucial significance in understanding his later collaboration with the Romans. The Pharisees, despite the unbecoming portrayal of them in the New Testament, were primarily intensely religious Jews and adhered to a strict though non-literal observance of the Torah. Politically, however, the Pharisees had no sympathy with the strong Jewish nationalism of such sects as the military patriotic Zealots and were disposed to submit to Roman rule if only the Jews could preserve their religious independence.

http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/kking/extern3.html

Extractions: Born in 37 AD to a priestly family, and raised in Jerusalem, Josephus first visited Rome in his early 20's as a political intermediary for the Jews; and when the Jewish revolt began he initially fought against the Romans. But, when captured by Vespasian, Josephus declared that Vespasian was destined to fulfil an ancient Jewish prophecy by becoming Emperor of Rome. When this actually happened, Vespasian gave Josephus his freedom and later adopted him, adding to him the family name of Flavius. Rejected as a traitor by his own people, he sought unsuccesfully to persuade the defenders of Jerusalem to surrender; and personally witnessed its fall. These experiences, together with his access to both Jewish and Roman sources were the basis for his two great works. 'The Jewish War', published about 78 AD, was a history of the revolt, and the 'Jewish Antiquities', a 20 volume history of the Jewish people, was published about 93 AD. Two other works by him also survive: 'Against Apion', a defence of Judaism against a Roman critic, and 'The Life', his autobiography, published in the early second century. It is not known exactly when he died. Josephus' work contains a number of references that provide corroboration for the historicity of the gospel records.

Extractions: from the Accounts of Josephus Josephus mentions the Essenes thirteen times in only three works. They are: (1) " Life 1.2 10-12, a brief passage in which Josephus states that he actually submitted himself to the Essene way of life for a time; (2) The Jewish War 2.8, 2-13, 119-61, the longest and most detailed description of the Essenes from any ancient writer; and (3) Antiquities of the Jews Josephus, along with Philo and Pliny, agree that the Essenes originated in Palestine (Callaway 65). Philo comments that they lived in may towns of Judaea while Josephus said they lived in every town in Palestine and several of them formed a colony (Vermes and Goodman 3,39). Pliny the Elder is the one who recorded Essenes near the western shore of the Dead Sea, north of Masada and Engedi (Callaway 66). Josephus writes in Antiquities , "Now there is another order of Essenes, who have the same views as the rest in their way of life, customs, and laws, but are at variance in their opinion of marriage" (Beall 23). One might be led to believe that this could be the order of Essenes at Qumran. Beall, Todd S.
