Erwin Ramsdell Goodenough (1893–1965) was a scholar in the history of religion. He is specifically noted for his study of the influence of Greek culture on Judaism, what some call Hellenistic Judaism. Born in Brooklyn, he studied at Hamilton College, Drew Theological Seminary, and then received a bachelor's degree in theology from Garrett Biblical Institute in 1917. He went on to Harvard University for three years, then three more years at Oxford University, where he received the D.Phil. degree in 1923. He then began teaching at Yale University in 1923, where he taught until he retired in 1962. He went on Brandeis University, then was given an office in the Widener Library at Harvard. He received honorary degrees from Yale, Hebrew Union College, and the University of Uppsala. He edited the ''Journal of Biblical Literature'' from 1934-1942. His papers are archived at Yale. After his death, he was honored by a volume of studies in his honor, ''Religions in Antiquity: Essays in Memory of Erwin Ramsdell Goodenough'', edited by Jacob Neusner, published by E.J.
