Against Apion is a historical work by Josephus, Flavius that was written in the 1st century AD. The book is a defense of Judaism against the accusations made by Apion, a Greek writer who had written a book attacking the Jewish people. Josephus refutes Apion's claims by providing evidence from various sources, including the Jewish scriptures, Greek and Roman historians, and his own personal experiences. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part addressing Apion's accusations and the second part providing a detailed history of the Jewish people. Some of the topics covered in the book include the origin of the Jewish people, the Exodus from Egypt, the reigns of David and Solomon, and the Babylonian exile. Against Apion is an important work in Jewish history and provides valuable insights into the ancient world.For our forefathers did not only appoint the best of these priests, and those that attended upon the Divine worship, for that design from the beginning, but made provision that the stock of the priests should continue unmixed and pure; for he who is partaker of the priesthood must propagate of a wife of the same nation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
