Book Synopsis Ancient Israel: What Do We Know and How Do We Know It? by : Lester L. Grabbe
Download or read book Ancient Israel: What Do We Know and How Do We Know It? written by Lester L. Grabbe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ancient Israel Lester L. Grabbe sets out to summarize what we know through a survey of sources and how we know it by a discussion of methodology and by evaluating the evidence. The most basic question about the history of ancient Israel, how do we know what we know, leads to the fundamental questions of Grabbe's work: what are the sources for the history of Israel and how do we evaluate them? How do we make them 'speak' to us through the fog of centuries? Grabbe focuses on original sources, including inscriptions, papyri, and archaeology. He examines the problems involved in historical methodology and deals with the major issues surrounding the use of the biblical text when writing a history of this period. Ancient Israel provides an enlightening overview and critique of current scholarly debate. It can therefore serve as a 'handbook' or reference-point for those wanting a catalogue of original sources, scholarship, and secondary studies. Grabbe's clarity of style makes this book eminently accessible not only to students of biblical studies and ancient history but also to the interested lay reader. For this new edition the entire text has been reworked to take account of new archaeological discoveries and theories. There is a major expansion to include a comprehensive coverage of David and Solomon and more detailed information on specific kings of Israel throughout. Grabbe has also added material on the historicity of the Exodus, and provided a thorough update of the material on the later bronze age.

The Moabites and Edomites are among the many Canaanite groups that the Hebrews had to deal with, usually in a violent way, but still, there are thousands of other Canaanite groups which were most of the time named based on the cities they originated.Well, if you are curious and want to discover the fascinating history of the ancient Canaanites, The Ancient Canaanites is an excellent read for you. Even before the Hebrews conquered a kingdom, the Canaanites were one of the most critical groups in the Levant. The Bible has different references about the Land of Canaan. For instance, God commanded the Israelites to destroy the Canaanites after the Israelite flight from Egypt. But, the actual history of the civilization doesn't match the theological sources. One thing that you should know about the Canaanite civilization is that is comprised of a multitude of different people from the same ethnic group but different cultures. The region was also composed of mixed borders, and very few written records were left behind about Canaan. Therefore, it is hard for readers to get an easy to read and cohesive resource about the fascinating civilization of the ancient Canaanites. Well, that is about to change.

Download or read book Canaanites written by Jonathan N. Tubb and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canaanites explores the ancient population of the Western Levant (Israel, Transjordan, Lebanon, and coastal Syria), examining the development of its distinctive culture from the early farming communities of the eighth millennium B.C. to the fragmentation of its social and cultural ideals in the latter half of the first millennium B.C. Jonathan N. Tubb makes judicious use of the Hebrew Bible in describing Canaanite culture. He views the Bible as a rich resource for understanding the literary and theological heritage of Israel, which he classifies as a subculture of Canaan. At the same time he reveals the limitations of the Bible as a historical document, arguing that to reconstruct the Canaanites' history we must first look at the archaeological data. Tubb stresses the continuity of Canaanite civilization, portraying events such as the imposition of Egyptian imperial rule and the development of historical Israel as episodic interruptions.

Book Synopsis Ancient Israelite Religion by : Susan Niditch
Download or read book Ancient Israelite Religion written by Susan Niditch and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1997 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ancient Israelite Religion offers a brief, accessible, and perceptive account of the religious beliefs and practices of the ancient Israelites, analyzing the complex and varied ways in which they present and preserve themselves in the Hebrew Bible. Drawing on the most recent literary scholarship and archaeological evidence, the author provides a compelling account of how the culture of the Israelites changed over three great historical periods--the distant pre-monarchic age, the monarchies of Israel and Judah, and the Babylonian exile and return. The heart of the book is a rich description of the Israelites' religious life as revealed in the Hebrew Bible. Exploring how they described their experience of God, Niditch draws out consistent themes in the Biblical stories. Most importantly, she allows us to see the world through the Israelites' eyes as she reconstructs both their habits and their larger worldview. Ideal for introduction to the Bible and introduction to religion courses, this insightful, subtly nuanced portrait is also easily understandable to general readers. It brings to life this ancient people whose legacy continues to influence and captivate the world today.
