Abstract: Josephus' greatest accomplishment was his success in providing himself a Jewish library. This first rate library included a large variety of Jewish sources, including those that were extremely Hellenized and those belonging to the proto-rabbinic or early rabbinic culture of Judaea. But in his writings, Josephus tried to hide his use of the works.
