Piotrkowski throws new light on a fascinating episode of ancient Jewish history that is usually left in the dark: the history of the mysterious Temple of Onias. The book focuses on the topic of the parallel Temple and at the same time casts a wide net, placing the story in the context of Jewish Diaspora life in ancient times. Ancient topics and texts are brought to bear, including epigraphy, archaeology, as well as the modern literature.
