 Most philosophical themes related to virtue are present in the Philonian treatises. The four traditional virtues (phronesis [prudence], sôphrosynè [temperance], andreia [courage], dikaiosunè [justice]) are completed through enkrateia which pertains more specifically to the Cynic-Stoic tradition as the science of that which appears in line with right reason. In Spec. 4.135, we find a different definition of the four cardinal virtues: eusebeia (piety, sanctity) is defined as “the queen of virtues”, and wisdom, temperance, and justice following. In the treatise De virtutibus, metanoia (repentance) and eugeneia (nobility) have special importance (Wilson 2010). The first concept, considered an unhappy passion by the Stoics, is the equivalent of the Jewish concept of teshuva. In Philo, it expresses the strong connection between theological and moral reflection. Eugeneia has nothing of a racist concept, since all those who are temperate and just are truly noble (Virt. 189). Abraham, son of a Chaldean astrologist, becomes the symbol of true nobility when he emigrated from polytheism to monotheism.
