Seder Olam Rabbah

Seder Olam Rabbah (Hebrew: סדר עולם רבה) is the earliest post-exilic chronicle preserved in the Hebrew language. Tradition considers it to have been written about 160 CE by Yose b. Halafta, which is not unreasonable, but it was probably also supplemented and edited at a later period . The JE cites the following works:
**Fürst, in Orient, Lit. vii. 547 et seq.;
**idem, Bibl. Jud. ii. 107-108;
**Grätz, Gesch. 3d ed., iv. 184, and note 14;
**A. Marx, introduction to his edition of the Seder 'Olam;
**B. Ratner, Mabo leha-Seder 'Olam Rabbah;
**Steinschneider, Cat. Bodl. cols. 1433-1434;
**Weiss, Dor, ii. 257 et seq.;
**Winter and Wünsche, Die Jüdische Litteratur, iii. 299 et seq.;
**Zunz, G. V. p. 85.
