It describes crops and trees cultivated by the Israelite farmer and the methods and tools used in cultivation. The information is gathered from both literary and archaeological sources, with the Old Testament supplying most of the literary information. The author attributes several innovations to the biblical peasant: large-scale terracing, runoff farming (i.e. irrigation), restoration of soil fertility, and the invention of the beam oil-press.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOut of print for some time, Eisenbrauns is pleased once again to make this valuable resource available.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Oded Borowski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1575061740\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781575061740\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Eisenbrauns\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.73d","brand":"Oded Borowski","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939728130303,"sku":"9781575061740","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_cd3dd55c-f82b-4c5d-b19b-9c74d708da1e.jpg?v=1681443157","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/agriculture-in-iron-age-israel-oded-borowski-9781575061740","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
