NETO, Willibaldo Ruppenthal **. A defesa das leis ancestrais em 2 Macabeus. Synthesis (La Plata) [online]. 2019, vol.26, n.1, pp.52-52. ISSN 0328-1205.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/1851779xe052.

This article aims to analyze the use of the Greek term nómos in 2 Maccabees, highlighting the establishment within this book of a Jewish propaganda in defense of the “ancestral laws” in order to validate the resistance of the Maccabees in favor of the Jewish way of life (Ioudaismós) against the imposition of the Greek way of life (Hellenismós) over the Jews.

Keywords : Judaism; Jews; Law; Hellenism; 2 Maccabees.
