Publisher Description: "Our Young Folks' Josephus" is a simplified retelling of the great historian Flavius Josephus' two famous epic narratives, "Antiquities of the Jews" and "The Jewish Wars." It covers the history of Israel from the time of Abraham until the fall of Jerusalem in A.D. 70, following the Septuagint chronology. This work is an invaluable supplement to the study of Old Testament history, covering a broad period of time in detail, yet at a manageable pace suitable for the mid-elementary level up through middle school. Black and white illustrations throughout. |
