First Translation
This text has not previously been translated into English.
While the works of Philo of Alexandria have been extensively translated into English from the original Greek (notably by C.D. Yonge and in the Loeb Classical Library), there is no English translation of Sigismundus Gelenius's 1551 Latin translation, 'Lucubrationes Omnes'. Gelenius's Latin version was a significant Renaissance scholarly achievement, but English translations of Philo consistently bypass this Latin intermediary to work directly from the Greek source texts.

About This Book
philosophytheology
Philo of Alexandria bridges the gap between the intellectual rigor of Greek philosophy and the sacred traditions of Mosaic law. This collection provides a direct look at the human mind as a mirror of the divine and a battleground between reason and sensory passion.
