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)
