Josephus and Philo

I have been researching the Gift of Prophecy in the New Testament for since early 2001. I am particularly interested in the views of prophecy within pre-Christian first-century Judaism, which is (roughly!) where Josephus and Philo come in.

I am keen to make contact with others researching this field, including those researching the Didache, Shepherd of Hermas or 1 Corinthians.
