The works of the learned and valiant Josephus : epitomiz'd from the Greek original: and the history preserv'd in what is material and substantial, only by contracting things of lesser moment, digesting the matter closer, and avoiding useless reptitions. To which is added, Josephus's two books against Appion; his Rule of reason, or the Martyrdom of the Macchabees. And the embassy of Philo Judæus to the Emperor Caius Caligula.
