2 Maccabees is a Jewish work composed during the 2nd century BCE and preserved by the Church. Written in Hellenistic Greek and told from a Jewish-Hellenistic perspective,2 Maccabees narrates and interprets the ups and downs of events that took place in Jerusalem prior to and during the Maccabean revolt: institutionalized Hellenization and the foundation of Jerusalem as a polis; the persecution of Jews by Antiochus Epiphanes, accompanied by famous martyrdoms; and the rebellion against Seleucid rule by Judas Maccabaeus.2 Maccabees is an important source both for the events it describes and for the values and interests of the Judaism of the Hellenistic diaspora that it reflects - which are often quite different from those represented by its competitor,1 Maccabees.

"Für das Studium des frühen Judentums wird der Kommentar von Daniel Schwartz, der aus einer reichen Quellenkenntnis schöpft und das Ergebnis lanjähriger Arbeit darstellt, künftig als Referenzwerk unverzichtbar sein. Die Reihe der ,,Commentaries on Early Jewish Literature" gewinnt mit ihm ein weiteres Aushängeschild."
Christfried Böttrich in: Orientalistische Literaturzeitung 1/2011
