Martin Goodman's History of Judaism or H. H. Ben-Sasson's similarly titled work. Just keep their bias in mind and you'll be fine.

Josephus Flavius

>> No.18267521

"The Jews" by Belloc is probably the real answer. Lots of unvarnished truth in it that got him labelled as an anti-semite.

This thread is a pile of shit, but I'll give you an actual recommendation.
Jews, God and History by Max Dimont is what you're looking for.

>> No.18269054

>>18266300
Antiquities of the Jews is what you are looking for.
It's a 20 volume work, originally composed in Greek at around 93 or 94 AD, written by Jewish historian Flavius Josephus. Flavius was a Jew who defected to the Roman side during the Jewish-Roman war and wrote it at the request of his gentile Roman patrons.
