NuBerea/secondary-sources

Second Temple Jewish secondary sources in Greek: the complete extant Greek corpora of Flavius Josephus (Jewish Antiquities, Jewish War, Vita, Contra Apionem) and Philo of Alexandria (all 31 works), segmented for scholarly text-retrieval and lexical-semantic study. These two first-century authors are the principal non-biblical Jewish witnesses to the Second Temple period and its milieu, and this repository serves as the Second Temple companion corpus to the NuBerea patristic and apocryphal collections.

Alongside the base texts, the repository carries derived linguistic-analysis layers over the same corpora. Because the underlying editions are licensed share-alike, everything here — text and derivatives alike — ships under CC BY-SA 4.0. The full technical specification (schemas, per-config detail, provenance) is available in the gated SPEC.md alongside this card.
