Description

Explore the depths of ancient Hebrew culture with Hebrew Life and Literature: Selected Essays of Bernhard Lang. Published by Routledge as part of the Society for Old Testament Study series, this volume brings together decades of research in biblical anthropology. Bernhard Lang provides a unique look into the world-view of the Bible and the formation of the scriptural canon. Readers can examine a wide range of social and spiritual topics, from the nature of the Hebrew God to the daily realities of peasant poverty and women's work. The book analyzes famous narratives including the stories of Joseph, Samson, and the expulsion from Paradise.
