Abstract: In Antiquities and War, Josephus took a partially positive view towards Agrippa. He did not depict Agrippa as a commendable character. Certain facts mentioned by Josephus showed that Agrippa was a bad character, and the positive side about him indicates the partiality of Josephus' sources of information. Kushnir-Stein thus argues that some reliable information in the work of Josephus might have been mixed with some fictions.
