Studien Zu Philo Von Alexandrien

de Otto Kaiser, Markus Witte, Sina Hofmann

The volume presents studies by the Marburg Old Testament scholar Otto Kaiser on the works of the Jewish religious philosopher Philo of Alexandria in the context of intellectual and cultural history. They examine issues of Jewish Biblical exegesis along with Philo's anthropology and cosmology, his understanding of ritual and prayer, and his ideas about living a virtuous life and overcoming death.
