Though I'm sure it would have been received well when it was published 60 years ago, Hexter's summary of the "Judeo" portion of the tradition - which covers the mythological origins of the Jews to ~134 BCE with the conclusion of the Maccabean Revolt - is a bit out of date with current scholarship and convention. Really, the first half of this book would serve only newcomers to the religion without care for nuances.
