"Interpreting Exile" considers forced displacement and deportation
in ancient Israel and comparable modern contexts in order to offer
insight into the realities of war and exile in ancient Israel and
their representations in the Hebrew Bible. Introductory essays
describe the interdisciplinary and comparative approach and explain
how it overcomes methodological dead ends and advances the study of
war in ancient and modern contexts. Following essays, written by
scholars from various disciplines, explore specific cases drawn
from a wide variety of ancient and modern settings and consider
archaeological, anthropological, physical, and psychological
realities, as well as biblical, literary, artistic, and
iconographic representations of displacement and exile. The volume
as a whole places Israel s experiences and expressions of forced
displacement into the broader context of similar war-related
phenomena from multiple contexts. The contributors are Rainer
