Pre-exilic writing in Israel : an archaeological study of science of literacy and literary activity in pre-monarchical and monarchical IsraelMakuwa, Phaswane Simon 11 1900 (has links)
The thrust of this work is to study Israelite pre-exilic writing of religious literature. The
beginning of literacy is considered from an archaeological perspective; especially, in the
pre-exilic Israelite community. The study of scribes and their services assist in the quest
for understanding pre-exilic religious writing in Israel. The Bible attests to pre-exilic
religious writing despite the often inferred ‘anachronism.’ The issue of post-exilic
composition of all Old Testament books is a matter of debate as opposed to pre-exilic
writing of some religious sources which is a matter that can be historically verified. / Biblical & Ancient Studies / M.A. (Biblical Archeology)

David and Solomon : investigating the archaeological evidenceThompson, Lynn 02 1900 (has links)
The historicity of the United Monarchy has recently come under attack. The
biblical 'minimalists' say that a reconstruction of ancient Israel is impossible with the sources
that we have access to, and the glory and wealth of Solomon's empire is mere fiction. They
disregard the Bible as a reliable source, and archaeology because it is mute and open to
interpretation. Some scholars have suggested lowering the traditional dates on certain
archaeological strata, resulting in an entirely different picture of the tenth century BCE.
Other scholars say that the United Monarchy definitely did exist and consider the Bible a valuable
historical source. The evidence for the tenth century and the United Monarchy as shown by the
Hebrew Bible and archaeology is investigated as well as various key sites in Israel. The conclusion
is that the traditional chronology and viewpoint of the United Monarchy still needs to be
respected. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M.A. (Biblical Studies)
