Jonathan5 Stars Out Of 5August 28, 2010JonathanThis is a wonderful set of books. The books are very well printed with a nice sewn binding and looks as if they will last an great amount of time. The gold imprinting on the cover and spine is also of great quality. The print is nicely spaced, adequately large and readable, with slightly smaller type at the bottom of the page separating the body of the text from referential notes and footnotes. I was also greatly enthused when I found that Schurer uses the Greek Septuagint (in the Greek script) for scripture as well as Hebrew (in Hebrew script) for his Rabbinical and Scriptural passages. Being fluent in Hebrew and Greek is of immense aide for my readings. If you don't have knowledge of either language, some of the original tone of the readings is lost, for example: When referring to the name the Jews gave to Antiochus IV, "Επιμάνης instead of Ἐπιφανὴς", you would loose the meaning of 'The crazy one' instead of the 'manifest god', as Schurer does not explain this meaning. I thoroughly enjoy these volumes and who can say no to price like that?
