Much of what we know about the beliefs of the Sadducees and Pharisees comes from Josephus. ![]() Josephus left us the earliest independent accounts of the lives of Jesus, John the Baptist, and James the brother of Jesus. In The Complete Works you will discover what the New Testament writers knew about Abraham, Moses, Samuel, David, and Solomon and examine an in-depth history of Herod and his infamous family. Illuminate your understanding of the New Testament. Encounter the world and traditions that Jesus knew. ![]()
