Synopsis

Opera omnia; presents the collected works of Philo of Alexandria, a Hellenistic Jewish philosopher who lived in Alexandria, Egypt, during the first century CE. Philo's writings attempt to harmonize Greek philosophy with Jewish scripture, offering allegorical interpretations of the Old Testament. His work is invaluable for understanding the intellectual environment of the early Roman Empire and the development of both Jewish and Christian thought. This edition, edited by Carl Ernst Richter, provides a comprehensive resource for scholars and students interested in Philo's contributions to philosophy, religion, and literature.
