Discover the captivating insights of Titus Flavius Josephus, the Jewish historian, military leader, and Roman citizen, who offers an unparalleled account of the Jewish people during the 1st century Roman Empire. Born in Jerusalem under Caligulas reign and present at the siege of Jerusalem, Josephus is a pivotal figure among early Christian writers. Biblical scholar Henry St. James Thackery from Kings College, UK, curates the most significant passages for understanding Christian origins and New Testament studies. He notes, Some figures in the New Testament, merely names, come alive through Josephus as he provides the rich backdrop of Jewish and world history during the time of our Lord and the early church. With over 400 footnotes and extensive appendices intertwined throughout the audio, listeners can immerse themselves in Thackerys classroom experience. Names and places are pronounced in authentic Erasmian Koine Greek, enhancing the learning journey.

    From the Foundation of the City Vol. 01 by Titus Livius.

    Ab urbe condita, is a monumental history of ancient Rome written in the Latin language by Titus Livius(Livy), an ancient Roman historian. The work covers the time from the stories of Aeneas, the earliest legendary period from before the city's founding in c. 753 BC, to Livy's own times in the reign of the emperor, Augustus. The last year covered by Livy is 745 AUC, or 9 BC, the death of Drusus. About 25% of the work survives. Livy's History of Rome was in demand from the publication of the first packet. Livy became so famous that a man from Cadiz travelled to Rome just to see him, and once he had seen, returned home. The popularity of the work continued through the entire classical period. A number of Roman authors used Livy, including Aurelius Victor, Cassiodorus, Eutropius, Festus, Florus, Granius Licinianus and Orosius.
