The facts on the card

- Philo was a leading writer of the Hellenistic Jewish community in Alexandria, Egypt.
- He wrote expansively in Koine Greek on philosophy, politics, and religion in his time, specifically, he explored the connections between Greek Platonic philosophy and late Second Temple Judaism.
