520 |a Sarah Pearce is well known among Philonic scholars for a series of fine articles on the Jewish Alexandrian philosopher. Now she has published a major work of which the main title is one of the denigrating designations Philo uses for Egypt (see e.g. Agric. 88; Migr. 154). In Philo’s allegorical interpretations of the biblical stories Egypt usually stands for evil, especially the evil of bodily passions. This motif is dealt with at length in this valuable book. Chapter 1 (‘Philo’s Contexts’) is an excellent general introduction to the man and his world, including Alexandrian culture (ad p. 40, n. 235: on Apion as a scholar see also P. W. van der Horst, ‘Who Was Apion?’ in my Japheth in the Tents of Shem: Studies on Jewish Hellenism in Antiquity [Leuven: Peeters, 2002], pp. 207–22).
