| Title: Typology in Josephus Secondary Title: Journal of Jewish Studies Volume: 31 Pages: 18-36 Type: Journal Article Year: 1980 Abstract: "In describing himself, Josephus often assumed the traits of biblical figures and even lent them some of his own traits. Jeremiah was presented as having anticipated Josephus' attempt at resisting Jewish efforts to throw off the foreign yoke. Joseph, Daniel, and Esther-Mordecai prefigures Josephus' function as a valued adviser at the Roman court. Josephus also defined himself with reference to Eleazar the high priest and Dionysius of Halicarnassus". - D.J.H. Keywords: Josephus as Theologian |
