[I]t is often exceedingly difficult to plumb the original understanding of an ancient text. Properly done, the task requires the consideration of an enormous mass of material .... Even beyond that, it requires an evaluation of the reliability of that material .... And further still, it requires immersing oneself in the political and intellectual atmosphere of the time ... and putting on beliefs, attitudes, philosophies, prejudices and loyalties that are not those of our day.
