What are some good resources on Judaea in the First Century CE?
Bump to see any news.
I don't know if you have this resource of not.

If not, I would suggest looking at some of your bible dictionaries or encyclopedias.
The closest you're going to get for Judea, is what you already have: Josephus. Most references are subject-related (eg DSS, archaeology, histories, etc).
Not Judea, but quite detailed concerning 'living':
Galilee in the Late Second Temple and Mishnaic Periods (2 vols.)
And Fitzmyer's excellent set:

My research suggests Martin Hengel. I have not read any of his works so you will have to investigate for yourself if the works are relevant to your needs. Perhaps someone is familiar and can comment.

How did Judea change after becoming hellenized?
It is reasonable to request resources but you must analyze the information for yourself.
