Biblical History

Life in Biblical Israel

Life in Biblical Israel
by Philip King & Lawrence Stager

This special-edition volume of the Library of Ancient Israel, based on the latest research, presents a vivid description of the world of Ancient Israel, covering such topics as domestic life, the means of existence, cultural expression, and religious practices. With over 175 full-color pictures and illustrations, Life in Biblical Israel opens the door to everyday life in biblical Israel for all readers. As Joseph Blenkinsopp comments, "This is something more ambitious than either a survey of archaeological history or an imaginative recreation of the past. It is a serious attempt at longue durée history--history, in other words, that probes in detail into such aspects of everyday life as household, arts and crafts, diet, gender relations, marriage, and the raising of children." This volume is perfect for classrooms, coffee tables, and personal use. more...
