In this book some of Israel's foremost archaeologists present a thorough and up-to-date survey of this research, providing an accessible introduction to early life in the land of the Bible. The authors discuss the history of ancient Israel from the Neolithic era (eighth millennium B.C.E.) to the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the First Temple in 586 B.C.E. Each chapter describes a different era as seen through relevant archaeological discoveries. The reader is introduced to the first permanent settlements in the land of Israel, the crystallization of the political system of city-states, the nature of Canaanite culture, the Israelite patterns of settlement, and the division of the country into the kingdoms of Judah and Israel. The lavishly illustrated text explores and demonstrates developments in religious practices, architecture, technology, customs, arts and crafts, warfare, writing, cult practices, and trade. The book will be a delightful and informative resource for anyone who has ever wanted to know more about the religious, scientific, or historical background to the events described in the Bible, or to current developments in the Middle East. 000451723 63000 $$aBible.$$pOld Testament$$xAntiquities. 000451723 63000 $$aBible.$$pOld Testament. 000451723 650_0 $$aExcavations (Archaeology)$$zPalestine. 000451723 651_0 $$aPalestine$$xAntiquities. 000451723 7001_ $$aBen-Tor, Amnon. 000451723 85200 $$bgen$$hDS111.A2$$iM3513$$i1992 000451723 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:451723$$pGLOBAL_SET 000451723 980__ $$aBIB 000451723 980__ $$aBOOK
