Feldman edited with Reinhold a Fortress title Jewish Life and Thought among
Greeks and Romans, which in ch. 4 has many useful references. These include
among others, Josephus, Ant. 12.138-53; 14.192-95, 213-16, 225-27, 247-55,
259-61, 320-22; 16.160-65, 167-70; 19.300-11 and Philo, Emb. to Gaius
23.155-58; 40.311-17. Discussions in many books covering period including
at length Tcherikover, Hellenistic Civilization and the Jews, to name one;
check out Feldman's Jew & Gentile in the Ancient World as well.

Mark Nanos
