Description

"Dongbin Choi argues that the book of 1 Maccabees is written with a linguistic technique that utilizes earlier Jewish texts in various ways in order to promote the religiopolitical agendas of its author. Choi offers a philological and thematic analyses on this scriptural language, and engages in the dialogue between the traditional view that tends to simply treat 1 Maccabees as a religious writing, and the radical view that considers it as a political propaganda"--
