A must read for all!
The legend of the Jews is an in-depth account of all that has happened since the beginning of mankind. A compilation of the traditional sources passed down from ages.

Legends of the Jews remain a most remarkable and comprehensive compilation of stories connected to the Hebrew Bible. It is an indispensable reference on that body of literature known as Midrash, the imaginative retelling and elaboration on Bible stories in which mythological tales about demons and magic co-exist with moralistic stories about the piety of the patriarchs. Legends is the first book to which one turns to learn about the postbiblical understanding of a biblical episode, or to discover the source for biblical legends that cannot be traced directly to the Bible.
This is a massive collation of the Haggada--the traditions which have grown up surrounding the Biblical narrative. Volume Two, corresponding with the Biblical Books of Exodus and Job, begins with the life and death of Joseph. His life and the lives of Jacob's sons - the founders of the Jewish tribes - are likewise told, and the story of Job and Moses in Egypt
