Persuasions of archaeology : the achievements and grandeur of the Omrids at their royal cities of Samaria and JezreelSchneider, Catharina Elizabeth Johanna 01 1900 (has links)
Our perception, of the Omrid kings of the Kingdom oflsrael in the ninth century BCE, is based
on the Books of 1 and 2 Kings in the Hebrew Bible. The Biblical author's concentration, on
Omrid apostasy rather than on their abilities and accomplishments, has robbed these competant
monarchs of the prominence allotted to kings like David and Solomon. Recent archaeological
excavations, in conjunction with extra-Biblical sources, have however projected a different
image. Excavations at the royal Omrid cities of Samaria, and especially Jezreel, have indicated
that Omri, and his son Ahab, had erected immense and grandiose structures. These edifices bear
testimony to periods of peace, stability and great economic prosperity. The Omrids deserve
new assessments as to their accomplishments, and therefore, by means of visible and tangible
structural remains, I wish to promote the persuasion of archaeology as vindication of Omrid
grandeur and achievement at Samaria and Jezreel. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M.A. (Biblical Studies)

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)
