Focusing on Judean-Samarian interactions in Persian, Hellenistic,
and Roman times, Gary N. Knoppers explores both commonalities and
differences, rivalries and relationships, as these communities
engaged one another in greater depth and complexity than scholars
have previously thought. Some essays elucidate archaeological and
epigraphic discoveries (Jerusalem, Mt. Gerizim excavations and
inscriptions), while others illumine Jewish (Ezra, Chronicles,
Josephus, Pseudo-Philo) and Samaritan (Samaritan 10th commandment,
the Chronicon Samaritanum) literary texts. How Judeans and
Samarians responded to competing claims to Israel's past by
reinterpreting shared scriptures is a unifying theme in these
eleven studies.
