ABSTRACT

1 Sam 27:1-28:2 tells the story of the fugitive David’s time of service to the Philistine king Achish. This essay investigates Josephus’ retelling of the Biblical episode in his Jewish Antiquites 6.319-326, comparing his version with the source account as attested by MT, 4QSam^a, Codex Vaticanus and the Lucianic/Antiochene MSS of the LXX, and Targum Jonathan on the Former Prophets. Topics addressed by the comparison include the text-form(s) of 1 Sam 27:1-28:2 available to Josephus, the rewriting techniques and distinctive features evidenced by his version, and the messages his retelling of the story might be intended to convey to his double audience, i.e. cultivated Gentiles and fellow Jews.
