Philo of Alexandria (20 BCE.--50 CE.) stood at the crossroads of ancient history. Philo was the first pioneer to integrate Judaic thought with the Stoic, Platonic, and Pythagorean philosophical traditions. This Alexandrian Jewish philosopher assembled the very first philosophical, ethical, psychological, exegetical, and theological commentary on the Torah. As his community’s most prestigious Jewish leader, he defended Alexandrian Jews from the attacks of anti-Semites, and met with the capricious Roman Emperor Caligula, calling upon him to respect the ethical monotheistic beliefs of the Jewish people. As with Josephus, Philo bears witness to the world’s first protomodern and intellectual Jewish community of Alexandria, the cultural center of Late Antiquity. Reclaiming Philo as a Jewish exegete puts him in company with other great luminaries of Jewish history. Rabbi Michael Leo Samuel has meticulously culled from all of Philo’s exegetical remarks, arranging them according to the biblical verses. He provides extensive parallels from the corpus of rabbinical literature, Greek philosophy, and Christian theology in presenting how Philo impacted the great minds of Late Antiquity and beyond. I do see the value of having Philo’s comments on the Pentateuch accessible in this form…all this is done to make Philo speak to a contemporary reading audience. Torrey Seland, Ph.D. Review of Biblical Literature Rabbi Samuel has done an outstanding service to Philo and to modern readers. In Rediscovering Philo of Alexandria: A First Century Jewish Commentator, Philo’s ancient Torah commentary becomes readable and meaningful, exciting and contemporary Rabbi Ari Kahn, Bar Ilan University, Author of Echoes of Eden Philo of Alexandria was the most prolific writer of Hellenistic Judaism in the early first century. Yet, his works have often remained unknown, unread, inaccessible or obscure to many Jewish and Christian readers. Rabbi Samuel’s new series, Philo of Alexandria: A First Century Jewish Commentator “cuts to the chase” by conveying the thinking of Philo in a relevant, down-to-earth manner that both scholar and layperson can easily grasp and appreciate. Enhanced by an abundance of cross-references and scholarly notes, this commentary provides new insight and angles of a theological conversation useful to anyone intrigued by this first-century Jewish thinker and exegete. Dr. Marvin Wilson, Gordon College, Author of Exploring Our Hebraic Heritage: A Christian Theology of Roots and Renewal “This is an excellent introduction into the thinking of a significant philosopher… Rabbi Samuel offers readers a biography of Philo and explains, with notes, what Philo is saying, thereby making his book not only very informative but very readable” Rabbi Israel Drazin, Author of Onkelos on the Torah: Understanding the Biblical Text

Philo's specific agenda is seen to be the presentation of a brief for a commitment to Judaism, including the obligation both to the study and to the practice of the Torah commandments and the 'ancient unwritten traditions'. This he argues from the vantage point of a thoroughly hellenized Jew to a thoroughly hellenized audience. Among the subjects treated in the book: Philo as part of an ongoing Palestinian - Diaspora midrashic tradition; Judaism considered as a philosophy: The Greek Virtues and the Mosaic Laws; Philo's Shema (includes a discussion of Philo's conception of the Phylacteries, the Mezuzah, and the absence in Philo of Parashath Tsitsith); the use of many Greek words and Greek word combinations in an idiosyncratic Jewish connotation in Jewish contexts; Philo's curriculum of study; The Oral Law and Philo.

The first author in which the traditions of Judaic thought and Greek philosophy flow together in a significant way is Philo of Alexandria. This study presents a detailed and comprehensive examination of Philo's knowledge and utilization of the most popular philosophical work of his day, the "Timaeus" of Plato. A kind of "commentary" is given on all passages in Philo's oeuvre in which the "Timaeus" is used or referred to, followed by a "synthetic" account of the influence that it had on Philo's thought.

The influence of Greco-Roman philosophy on Philo of Alexandria's view of the Mosaic law is clear. This book explains how Philo integrated Greco-Roman conceptions of law, such as Unwritten Law, the Law of Nature, and the "Living Law," into his understanding of the divine origin of the Mosaic law of the Jews.

The present essay focuses on Abraham as a symbol or embodiment of the natural law. The starting point is a verse from Genesis, 26:5, which puzzled exegetes from the ancient times as it says that Abraham obeyed God keeping his commands, in a period of human history when the Torah had not yet been given at Sinai. The book examines the relation between natural and revealed law and which role this relation plays in Judaism, starting from Philo De Abrahamo. Then tries to investigate if his exegesis can dialogue with the rabbinic tradition and the author to whom we probably owe the first full doctrine of natural law in the Jewish culture, that is Baruch Spinoza.
