Alexander the Great - Great Non-Jews in Jewish History
Item #: 0762
In the Jewish world, the famed Greek emperor is nothing short of a folk hero. That he granted favors to the Jews is undisputed, but there's plenty of disagreement about the details. Rabbi Wein separates fact from legend with an examination of three accounts of Alexander's relations with the Jews: that of the Talmud, that of Josephus, and that of the ancient Samaritans.
