In the section of the antiquities, there is a mention of Jesus of Nazareth and the "tribe of Christians", a scant paragraph. Wasserstein, as do many other scholars, feels it is a Christian addition as the text names Jesus as the Messiah, something a Jew would not do. John the Baptist has a brief mention and there is much more about the Herods and Pontius Pilate in that chapter.
The editor explained much that was confusing and tried to help with the name similarities. I found the index necessary for going back and rereading about a name that was mentioned again. And the footnotes were invaluable.
If you want to read Josephus but can't quite manage the full text, this abridgment would by just right. ( )
