- Abstract
Josephus' views on historical process originate in the Bible. It makes Josephus popular among Christian authors. The Bible sets a linear model of history, thus the ancient history of Jews becomes an axis of history of mankind. The Bible narration reflects the movement of social time which God operates. In the end of the history He should send the Messiah for establishment of His rule on the Earth. Josephus has anticipated the idea about the universal history, which became accepted in the Middle Ages.
