Description
An international team of historians, archaeologists and biblical scholars discuss new perspectives on the archaeology, history and biblical traditions of ancient Jerusalem and examine their ethical, literary, historical and theological relationships. Essays range from a discussion of the Hellenization of the city in th time of Herod to an examination of Jerusalem's identity and myth on the Web, while Thomas L. Thompson's informed Introduction queries whether a true history of ancient Jerusalem and Palestine can in fact ever be written. This is volume 381 in the Journal for the Study of the Old Testament Supplement Series and volume 13 in the Copenhagen International Seminar Series
