Flavius Josephus — Jewish Antiquities

Late first-century Jewish historiographical work in Greek. It is a major comparative source for Second-Temple institutions, rulers, priesthood, politics, geography, and Jewish history, but individual historical claims still require source criticism.

Evidence boundary: Josephus is an ancient literary/historical source, not a neutral transcript of events. Agreement or disagreement with Scripture must be evaluated claim by claim; later digital editions are not the ancient autograph.
