The origins of ancient Israel are shrouded in mystery, and those hoping to explore the issue must utilize resources from three different fields--archaeology, epigraphy, and biblical texts--and then examine their interrelations while keeping in mind that the name Israel was not used to describe just one state but referred to numerous entities at different times. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eArchaeology, History, and Formation of Identity in Ancient Israel\u003c\/i\u003e provides a critical reading of Israel's history. It is neither a harmonizing reading, which takes the picture painted by texts as a given fact, nor a reading supporting biblical texts with archaeological and epigraphic data; instead, it offers the reader multiple options to understand biblical narratives on a historical and theological level. In addition to presenting the main currents in the field, the book draws upon the latest discoveries from Czech-Israeli excavations to offer new hypotheses and reconstructions based on the interdisciplinary dialogue between biblical studies, archaeology, and history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Filip Capek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8024654172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788024654171\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Karolinum Press, Charles University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/02\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 355\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Filip Capek","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45481893691647,"sku":"9788024654171","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_74abf7b2-9674-4adf-bd8b-998f363616cb.jpg?v=1715987991","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/archaeology-history-and-formation-of-filip-capek-9788024654171","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
