The recent reviews, issued by the
review service of Society of Biblical Literature, did not contain much directly related to Philo or Diaspora Judaism, but this one is worth mentioning:
Charlesworth, James H. and Michael A. Daise, editors, Light in a Spotless Mirror: Reflections on Wisdom Traditions in Judaism and Early Christianity. (Harrisburg, Pa.: Trinity Press International, 2003 )pp. ix + 149.
This slim volume contains the following articles:
Roland Murphy, Israels Wisdom: Dialogue between the Sages (pp. 7-25)
Peter Schafer, Wisdom finds a Home: Torah as Wisdom (pp. 26-44)
Peder Borgen, The Gospel of John and Philo of Alexandria (pp. 45-76)
D. Moody Smith, John and the Synoptics: Historical Tradition and the Passion narrative (pp. 77-91)
James H. Charlesworth, Lady Wisdom and Johaninne Christology (pp. 92-133)I admit I have not read the volume myself, but this is what I have gathered from the reviews. The article of Borgen I have read, you will find my comments
here. You may read the reviews by yourself here:
Review One by Raymond Van C. Leuwen, and Review Two by
Tobias Nicklas.
