When dealing with Egyptian backgrounds and allusions to Egyptian
documents and practices in the Hebrew Bible, scholars have tended
to draw on Egyptian records dating to the second millennium BCE.
Yet, in the field of ancient Near Eastern studies, most of these
biblical texts are considered to be compositions dating to the
subsequent millennium. Volume 18 of the Journal of Ancient Egyptian
Interconnections presents the proceedings of a workshop held at the
University of Lausanne on April 22-23, 2015, to explore the
Egypt-Bible interface within this chronological constraint, and
methodological ones as well. Focusing on sources of first
millennium BCE rather those of the periods in which the authors of
the biblical texts set the events has generated new lines of
interrogation revolving around questions of transmission and
reception rather than on the historical background of the events
themselves. How Egyptian traditions might find their way into the
written tradition of ancient Israel and Judah is, here, the center
of the discussion. 20 illustrations, diagrams and maps, some
colour.
