The article argues that the word "pogrom," used to define Russian assaults against the Jews in the Pale of Settlement, has acquired semantic characteristics that cannot be applied to the events of Alexandria almost 2,000 years earlier.

His explanation of the emphasis he accords to Mithraism is made explicit in the final section of the article, and relies on the notion that it was one of Christianity's 'closest rivals' up to about 400 c.E. Court surveys here the primary evidence, with a certain emphasis on Cumont's work (and its Frazerian accent on fertility), without much reference to the current bibliography.

However, it remains possible to formulate well-reasoned hypotheses and thereby stimulate further research on this fascinating text. This article discusses the political significance of the Exagoge through the exploration of five different hypotheses stemming from as many possible historical scenarios of the mid-second cent. B. C. E. within which Moses, the tragic hero of the play, could have acquired particular relevance. The “Mosaic constituencies,” whose political interests Ezekiel may have addressed by writing his play, are either the Oniads or the Samaritans or the Hasmoneans.

Questioning the legitimacy of the scriptural scrolls these groups had brought along from the Levant when they first arrived in Egypt represents the culmination of this political dynamic. Among the sources which support the argument of this paper, the most important are: the Satrap Stela (311 BCE), P. Anastasi III (13th c. BCE), Jos., Ant., books 12 and 13, the papyri from Elephantina (5th c. BCE), P. Berlin 13615 (6th c. BCE), the Letter of Aristeas and the archaeogical evidence from Mt. Gerizim in Samaria.
