ABSTRACT
Following the repression of Absalom’s uprising, a new threat quickly emerges for David, i.e. the revolt of Sheba, described in 2 Samuel 20. This article presents a detailed study of Josephus’ version {Antiqiiities 7.278-292) of the latter incident in relation to its Biblical source (as represented by MT,4QSama Codex Vaticanus, the Lucianic MSS of the LXX, and Targum Jonathan of the Former Prophets). Overaching questions addressed by the article include: the text-form(s) of 2 Samuel 20 available to Josephus, the rewriting techniques applied by him in this section of Ant. (e.g., rather extensive additions to/amplifications of the Biblical data), the distinctiveness of his rendition (e.g., with regard to the characterization of the personages involved) and the messages this might have been intended to convey to Gentile and Jewish audiences. The article likewise gives some attention to the handling of Sheba episode elsewhere in postbiblical Jewish literature.
