Description

Explore the connection between ancient economic shifts and biblical literature in this scholarly study by Peter Altmann. During the Persian-dominated centuries from the 6th to 4th centuries BCE, the Eastern Mediterranean and Near East experienced significant changes, including the rise of coinage. This book examines how biblical texts from this era responded to these major developments. Altmann examines foundational economic concepts from the ancient Near East and earlier biblical traditions. The research demonstrates how Persian-period texts utilize these existing traditions to address the specific economic challenges of their time. This work provides deep insight into how economic issues shaped the narratives of Ezra and Nehemiah, particularly regarding their approaches to temple building and other societal structures. It is a necessary resource for students and researchers interested in the history of business and economic thought within ancient religious texts.
