Note

A translation of Abraham ben David ibn Daud's abstract, in book 3 of his "Sefer ha-Kabalah", of the anonymous "Josippon" or "Yosippon". The latter has been misattributed to a Joseph ben Gorion, usually identified with Joseph ben Gorion ha-Kohen but occasionally with Flavius Josephus.Citation/references STC (2nd ed.), 14804
