Abstract: 

From the time of Alexander the Great to the end of the Roman Empire, Greek culture permeated much of the ancient world. Judea was no exception. Hellenism brought with it new artistic styles, architectural forms and literary genres that helped give new expression to traditional forms of Jewish identity and culture. Here, Goodman looks at how and why and to what extent Greek culture was absorbed into the ancient Jewish world.
