Using new approaches, contemporary scholars have begun to synthesize this material with the biblical traditions. \u003cem\u003eThe Oxford History of the Biblical World\u003c\/em\u003e incorporates the best of this scholarship, and in chronologically ordered chapters presents the reader with a readable and integrated study of the history, art, architecture, languages, literatures, and religion of biblical Israel and early Judaism and Christianity in their larger cultural contexts. The authors also examine such issues as the roles of women, the tensions between urban and rural settings, royal and kinship social structures, and official and popular religions of the region.\u003cbr\u003e Understanding the biblical world is a vital part of understanding the Bible. Broad, authoritative, and engaging, \u003cem\u003eThe Oxford History of the Biblical World\u003c\/em\u003e will illuminate for any reader the ancient world from which the Bible emerged.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Oxford History of the Biblical World (Revised) | Michael D Coogan | Paperback | 9780195139372 | Used: Good | 1771818","offer_id":49551212085400,"sku":"1771818","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71z3OuB0yQL.jpg?v=1784916327","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/oxford-history-of-the-biblical-world-revised","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
