Acting Gods, Playing Heroes, and the Interaction between Judaism, Christianity, and Greek Drama in the Early Common Era

This study offers a rigorous rejoinder to the widespread presumption, rooted in antiquity and persisting up to the present, that Judaism and Christianity were separated from classical Greek theater. The outstanding feature of this book that sets it apart is the extent of its participation in several sub-fields of scholarship that often remain separate, allowing for fruitful insights for academics and students who may not usually have access to facets of this material.
