Abstract: "Josephus' information for the Persian period, beyond the Biblical text, was very unreliable. In reconstructing these two hundred years he had but a list of the Jewish high priests, some knowledge of the Persian kings, and Jewish/Samaritan propaganda". "Unsere Kenntnis der jüdischen Geschichte der Zeit zwischen Nehemia und Alexander d.Gr. Ist sehr lückenhaft. Auch die Heranziehung von Josephus' Antiquitates hilft hier nicht weiter, da seine Angaben dubios und seine Quellen mager sind. "The history of Judaism in the Persian Period is still largely blank".
