📖 **Anthology edited by Carol Bakhos covers nearly a millennium of Jewish history**

"_The installment that Bakhos oversaw covers the years from Alexander the Great to the era just before the emergence of Islam. That transformative timespan saw the destruction of the Second Temple by the Roman Empire, in 70 CE, as well as Judaism responding to the Greek, Sasanian and Parthian empires; the emergence of rabbis; and a transition from temple-based belief to Torah-based practice._"
