Works: Translated From The Greek By C. D. Yonge; Volume 4
This fourth volume of the "Works" of Philo of Alexandria, translated by C.D. Yonge, presents a critical collection of Philo's writings. Philo, a Hellenistic Jewish philosopher who lived in Alexandria, Egypt, during the Roman Empire, sought to harmonize Greek philosophy with Jewish scripture. His works offer invaluable insights into the intellectual climate of the first century and the development of early Christian thought.
Yonge's translation makes Philo's complex arguments accessible to modern readers, revealing Philo's allegorical interpretations of the Old Testament and his philosophical synthesis of Platonic, Stoic, and Jewish ideas. This volume is essential for scholars and readers interested in religious history, philosophy, and the intersection of Greek and Jewish cultures. Explore the writings of a pivotal figure whose profound influence resonates through the ages.
