This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Light on the Old Testament From Babel Considerable portion of the material of this publication formed the basis of lectures delivered at Winona Bible Conference, Mt. Gretna Chautauqua, Pocono Pines Assembly, and other institutions and churches, besides those given on Sunday afternoons in Houston Hall under the au spices of the Christian Association of the University of Pennsylvania. In addition to the discussion of the cuneiform inscriptions in these lectures, which bear more par ticularly upon the Old Testament, several chapters (vii, VIII, XII, and XV) have been included on life in ancient Babylonia. Besides facts published by others, these chapters include a presentation of certain discussions of general interest which I have published in a more technical form in the series: The Babylonian Expedition of the University of Penn sylvania. These chapters, however, also contain much material that appears for the first time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Chaldean Account of Genesis written by George Smith and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-10-28 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this early work of Assyriology, Smith provides his analysis of the Gilgamesh Epic as well as Enuma Elish in their relation to the Old Testament. Five years after his death, the renowned Assyriologists, A. H. Sayce revised and updated his work. The stories and myths given in the foregoing pages have, probably, very different values; some are genuine traditions--some compiled to account for natural phenomena, and some pure romances. At the head of their history and traditions the Babylonians placed an account of the creation of the world; and, although different forms of this story were current, in certain features they all agreed. Beside the account of the present animals, they related the creation of legions of monster forms which disappeared before the human epoch, and they accounted for the great problem of humanity--the presence of evil in the world--by making out that it proceeded from the original chaos, the spirit of confusion and darkness, which was the origin of all things, and which was even older than the gods. --from the Conclusion

Download or read book The Origin of Biblical Traditions written by Albert T. Clay and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many scholars during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries argued that ancient Israel simply borrowed most of its culture and religion from Babylonia. In this volume Clay counters that West Semitic cultures (the Amorites) were already a developed civilization before Israel came under Babylonian influence. Writing a decade before the discoveries of Ugarit and Mari, Clay noted that there were numerous clues to West Semitic cultures. While some of his arguments and conclusion are no longer tenable, this work retains its interest for its place in the discussion. Without directly referring to Clay, George Mendenhall affirms Clays fundamental point in this volume: from the MB Age on there was no region of the Levant that had not been influenced by the Amorite language and culture in various ways and various degrees. Their cultural and linguistic influence was a lasting one that is gradually coming to light, especially in the areas of religion and law (The Amorites, in 'Anchor Bible Dictionary').

Download or read book A Comparative Study of the Literatures of Egypt, Palestine, and Mesopotamia written by T. Eric Peet and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-06-01 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last hundred years scholarship has revealed the existence of two other eastern literatures which are not only as old as that of the Hebrews but very much older, namely those of Egypt and Babylonia. . . . Although much of Babylonian literature is know to us mainly from the Assyrian versions found in Assurbanipal's library, recent discoveries have shown that many of its best epic and lyric productions go back at least two thousand years further, and have their roots in the Sumerian civilization. In Egypt, too, religious literature is found in a highly developed state as early as the Pyramid Texts, which, in the form in which we have them, are as old as 2500 B.C., and possibly go back in part to much earlier originals. These discoveries make it no longer possible to regard the literature of the Hebrews as an isolated phenomenon in the ancient East, and they furnish a host of new criteria which must be applied to any attempt to explain and to appraise the Old Testament. --from the Preface

This book was released on 2005-05-24 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In these lectures [the Schweich Lectures of 1916] an attempt has been made, not so much to restate familiar facts, as to accommodate them to new and supplementary evidence which has been published in America since the outbreak of the war. . . . Hebrew achievements in the sphere of religion and ethics are only thrown into stronger relief when studied against their contemporary background. "The bulk of our new material is furnished by some early texts, written towards the close of the third millennium B.C. They incorporate traditions which extend in unbroken outline from their own period into the remote ages of the past, and claim to trace the history of man back to his creation. They represent the early national traditions of the Sumerian people, who preceded the Semites as the ruling race in Babylonia; and incidentally they necessitate a revision of current views with regard to the cradle of Babylonian civilization." -from the Preface
