What is History, Politics and the Bible from the Iron Age to the Media Age (The Library of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Studies Book 651) about?

As biblical studies becomes increasingly fragmented, this collection of essays brings together a number of leading scholars in order to show how historical reconstruction, philology, metacriticism, and reception history can be part of a collective vision for the future of the field. This collection of essays focuses more specifically on critical questions surrounding the construction of ancient Israel(s), 'minimalism', the ongoing significance of lexicography, the development of early Judaism, orientalism, and the use of the Bible in contemporary political discourses. Contributors include John van Seters, Niels Peter Lemche, Ingrid Hjelm, and Philip R. Davies. ** Review These essays create a broad and challenging volume and, in their questioning of paradigms and the diversity of their approaches, they create a fitting tribute to Keith W. Whitelam. * Journal for the Study of the Old Testament * About the Author James G. Crossley is Professor of Bible, Society and Politics at St Mary's University, Twickenham, UK. Jim West is Lecturer in Biblical Studies and Reformation History at Ming Hua Theological College, Hong Kong.
