Story
For more than a century, archaeologists have been unearthing the tombs, temples, texts, and artifacts of the ancient Near East and the Mediterranean world. Using new approaches, contemporary scholars have begun to synthesize this material with the biblical traditions. The Oxford History of the Biblical World incorporates the best of this scholarship, and in chronologically ordered chapters presents the listener with an integrated study of the history, art, architecture, languages, literatures, and religion of biblical Israel and early Judaism and Christianity in their larger cultural contexts.

Lots of Information
Reviewed: 07-29-24
There is a lot of useful information in this book. It can give you a point from which to do more research. The one thing I disliked about the book was that it sometimes presented in a more modernistic view that the Bible is not always an accurate source of historical knowledge.
