Alexander the Great in Jerusalem: Myth and History
Amitay, Ory (Senior Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, University of Haifa)
This book discusses four stories told in antiquity about the meeting between Alexander the Great and the Judeans of Jerusalem. It demonstrates how the historical tradition used Alexander to bolster Judean self-confidence under conditions of military and political inferiority and to absorb the changing foreign rulers into their sacred history.
