The entry on each inscription provides text, translation, bibliography and commentary. Hitherto, it has been necessary to refer to an older collection (1952, but essentially pre-war) together with a separately published revision (1964), with very limited indexing. Here the aim has been to include inscriptions not in the earlier collection, to bring together the necessary information on each inscription, and to supply full indexing. The inscriptions form a vivid primary source for Jewish history and religion.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e Inscriptions\u003cbr\u003e Appendix 1: inscriptions not considered to be Jewish\u003cbr\u003e Appendix 2: inscriptions from outside Egypt\u003cbr\u003e Appendix 3: Jewish names in Pagan inscriptions\u003cbr\u003e Indexes to the inscriptions of Egypt\u003cbr\u003e Indexes to the inscriptions of Cyrenaica\u003cbr\u003e Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e Abbreviations\u003cbr\u003e Concordance with CIJ and CPJ\u003cbr\u003e Plates.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Judaism [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Judaism\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Judaism%20%5BHRJ%5D%22\"\u003eHRJ\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46006260138264,"sku":"9780521043793","price":42.77,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521043793i_ab4e7fda-eb54-464e-ac0c-58c1f2beabfc.jpg?v=1694968625","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/jewish-inscriptions-of-graeco-roman-egypt-paperback-9780521043793","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
