Abstract: 

This chapter provides a brief overview of the pre-Hasmonean Hellenistic period and then proceeds to a survey of four types of texts most obviously datable to this period and consideration of their profile. These include apocalyptic texts, Second Temple wisdom, diaspora texts and priestly materials [e.g. Chronicles] along with post-P harmonizations/coordinations. The chapter concludes with a survey of other texts in the Hebrew Bible that may reflect each of these four profiles.
