Borgen, Illuminations by Philo of Alexandria (Brill)

NEW BOOK FROM BRILL:

Illuminations by Philo of Alexandria: Selected Studies on Interpretation in Philo, Paul and the Revelation of John

Series: Studies in Philo of Alexandria, Volume: 12

Author: Peder Borgen
Volume Editor: Torrey Seland

This volume contains a collection of 17 essays on Philo written by Peder Borgen between 1987 and 2018. The first six studies deal with important issues in Philo’s religious thought and social world, such as his views on Flaccus, prayers, and his eschatology. The next five essays illustrate how an understanding of Philo can contribute to the interpretation of Paul, especially his Letter to the Galatians. The final six studies deal with the importance of Philo’s writings for the interpretation of the Revelation of John, a subject too rarely touched upon in recent scholarship.
