Philo of Alexandria and the Hellenistic Theology is a book written by G. R. S. Mead that explores the philosophical and theological ideas of Philo of Alexandria, a Hellenistic Jewish philosopher who lived in the first century BCE. The book provides an in-depth analysis of Philo's works and his influence on Hellenistic theology, as well as his contributions to the development of early Christian thought.
