The editors of the First Part of the General Estoria used Josephus’ Latin version of the AI (Antiquitates Iudaicae) with great frequency. Our study focuses on some items: data offered by Josephus, and not by the Bible, but collected in the GE; points that the GE attributes to Josephus but that appear in another way or simply do not appear; facts related by Josephus briefly but extensively considered in the Alfonsi writing; and, finally, some important errors contained in the GE, when the events are described differently in the Jewish historian
