Philo Judaeus, or Philo of Alexandria, lived ca. 20 B. C. E. To 50 C. E. His works are written in an exceedingly rich Greek, and show great erudition in classical literature and both classical and contemporary philosophy, a thorough training in the art of rhetoric, and a broad knowledge of general science. Philo must have obtained this education in Greek schools. Everything that has been inferred as to the sources of his Jewish knowledge remains highly hypothetical, since the existence of Jewish schools in the Diaspora of that time has not been proved.

" Abrahamson notes in the introduction to this work: "And now I call out to you...the writers of Israel...come with me and help me in this holy war...write, publish, bring to light and vindicate our holy religion. We are all obligated by this holy responsibility, for if we are not for ourselves, then who will be for us, and if not now, then when? And who knows, maybe Divine Providence caused all this [i. E. The pogroms] to bring us here to this free land, where there is no satanic adversary, demon of destruction or devil (censor) over the press. Everyone may speak and write as he wishes concerning matters of religion...However, to our sorrow, we have become used to the barrier placed over our mouths by our enemies in all the lands of the dispersion. We have ceased to speak on matters of religion because one could never know who might take offence. Over time this custom has become second nature to us...not to respond with the truth because it was a time to be silent (and this was when we were in cursed Russia) . But now it is a time to speak (now that we are in the land of freedom) . " SUBJECT(S) : Judaism -- Apologetic works. Disputations -- Jewish-Christian. Flyleaf brittle and chipped. Ex-library.
