| Title: Cassius' Chronology and Josephus' Vagueness Pages: 102-112 Type: Generic Year: 1997/1998 Abstract: "Harrington, Daniel J. in: NTAb 42,2 (1998) 344-34: Laodicea probably fell to Cassius in the summer of 43 B.C., and the holiday mentioned by Josephus was most likely tabernacles of 43. Josephus' narratives of Cassius' conquest (Ant. 14:289; War 1:231), which - probably following Nicolas of Damascus - report the fall of Laodicea after Herod's visit to Jerusalem, are to be understood as supplying background material from the recent past, explaining the reader how it happened that Cassius was ruling Syria at the time following Herod's visit to Jerusalem." |
