English: A fourteenth-century miniature Greek manuscript depicting scenes from the life of Alexander the Great. The priests of the Jews (Rabbis) offer Alexander the Great Gold and Silver, Alexander spent the gifts of the Rabbi’s on his Gods. The whole scene is depicted entirely in Byzantine fashion of the late Byzantine period (1204-1453). Alexander the Great is depicted as a Byzantine Emperor (Basileus) and his troops are depicted as Byzantine-Greek soldiers of the 14th century. The Jewish Rabbis are shown wearing distinctive ceremonial robes and small caps on their heads. Originally written in Byzantine Greek script, additional Arabic script in Turkish Language was added centuries later. From the “Alexander Romance” in S. Giorgio dei Greci in Venice. עברית: היהודי רבנים היוונים של המאה הי"ד
