Past and present modes of defining difference betray both similarities and differences to ethnic representations in the Hebrew Bible, providing important contexts for understanding the biblical view. This book contributes to a clearer understanding of the theological, historical, and ethnic dynamics underpinning representations of Cushites in the Hebrew Bible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kevin Burrell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 900441875X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004418752\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 404\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 1.10d","brand":"Kevin Burrell","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45896997077247,"sku":"9789004418752","price":181.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7c1cabef-63f6-4357-a1cf-615328065dbd.jpg?v=1721372900","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cushites-in-the-hebrew-bible-kevin-burrell-9789004418752","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
