A History of Israel » (4TH)

From a Christian perspective which takes into account new archeological data, the late author—a professor of Hebrew and interpretation of the Old Testament at Union Theological Seminary in Virginia—traces the history of Israel through the formative period of Judaism. Includes the forewords to the first and third editions (without dates), chronological charts, 16 color maps, and an introduction by a campus colleague. Indexing is by subject and Scripture reference.
