This volume offers a broad overview and survey of Old Testament study. It consists of commissioned articles from a range of international Old Testament scholars, from the UK, Europe, Canada and the US. The history, archaeology, theology, sociology and ancient Near Eastern context of the Hebrew Bible are all given considerable attention, and by addressing questions of methodology and interpretation the volume also introduces readers to important issues in the academic study of the Old Testament. The articles are written so as to be accessible to non-specialists whilst also of interest to scholars, since the contributors articulate their own position on their subject. The volume as a whole is introduced by an editorial overview of the discipline, providing the reader with a guide to the interconnections between individual articles. This text should be a useful tool for students, not just for use on one course, but over several years of study.
