In History, Archaeology and the Bible Forty Years after
"Historicity", Hjelm and Thompson argue that a 'crisis' broke in
the 1970s, when several new studies of biblical history and
archaeology were published, questioning the historical-critical
method of biblical scholarship. The crisis formed the discourse of
the Copenhagen school's challenge of standing positions,
which-together with new achievements in archaeological
research-demand that the regional history of ancient Israel, Judaea
and Palestine be reconsidered in all its detail. This volume
examines the major changes that have taken place within the field
of Old Testament studies since the ground breaking works of Thomas
Thompson and John van Seters in 1974 and 1975 (both republished in
2014). The book is divided in three sections: changing perspectives
in biblical studies, history and cult, and ideology and history,
presenting new articles from some of the field's best scholars with
comprehensive discussion of historical, archaeological,
anthropological, cultural and literary approaches to the Hebrew
Bible and Palestine's history. The essays question: "How does
biblical history relate to the archaeological history of Israel and
Palestine?" and "Can we view the history of the region
independently of a biblical perspective?" by looking at the problem
from alternative angles and questioning long-held interpretations.
Unafraid to break new ground, History, Archaeology and the Bible
Forty Years after "Historicity" is a vital resource to students in
the field of Biblical and East Mediterranean Studies, and anyone
with an interest in the archaeology, history and religious
development in Palestine and the ancient Near East.
