Abstract: JSJ 27 (1996), 462: "After a discussion of the picture of evil Jewish kings presented by the rabbis and Josephus, Feldman deals with Josephus' often favourable comments on non-Jewish rulers. Also his picture of Ahasuerus is positive: "What is most striking about Josephus' version of Ahasuerus is that there is not even a single hint in it that is negative"".
