''Against Apion'' was a work written by Flavius Josephus as a defense of Judaism as a classical religion and philosophy, stressing its antiquity against the relatively more recent traditions of the Greeks. Some anti-Semitic allegations by Apion, and myths as old as Manetho's are exposed there as well, though there was apparently some confusion between Manetho's references to the Hyksos, and the Hebrews. Assuming that Josephus was completely familiar with Manetho's points, Manetho may have simply written a blanket condemnation of all Semitic peoples. The Hyksos (or Canaanites) by Biblical definition were not Semitic, but Hamitic. == External link == *[http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/gutbook/lookup?num=2849 Gutenberg Project's text of ''Against Apion''] Ancient Jewish Roman historyRoman era books
