Aseneth of Egypt: The Composition of a Jewish Narrative examines manuscripts of Joseph and Aseneth for common elements in order to propose a base storyline that can be used to locate the story’s origin. Patricia D. Ahearne-Kroll contextualizes the story of Joseph and Aseneth in Hellenistic Egypt by demonstrating how the base storyline reflects the literary impulse of Greek-speaking Jewish writers to redescribe their identity in Egypt and Judean connections to the land of Egypt, while incorporating Ptolemaic strategies of legitimation of power.
