History of Ancient Israel - Christian Frevel - Bog

This English translation of the second edition of Christian Frevel's essential textbook Geschichte Israels (Kohlhammer, 2018) covers the history of Israel from its beginnings until the Bar Kokhba revolt (132-135 CE). Frevel draws on archaeological evidence, inscriptions and monuments, and the Bible to sketch a picture of the history of ancient Israel within the context of the southern Levant that is sometimes familiar but often fresh and unexpected. Tables of rulers, a glossary, a timeline of the ancient Near East, and resources arranged by subject make this an accessible, essential, and up-to-date textbook for students and scholars alike.
