Inhaltsangabe

A clear, thoughtful introduction to a history of Israel, with emphasis on how truth guides the past. This edition situates the work within a long tradition of biblical scholarship, explaining how modern historians weigh sources and defend conclusions about ancient Israelite history.

The preface discusses the book’s point of view, the nature of historical truth, and how different historians approach the same material. It situates Ewald’s method alongside other scholars and clarifies what readers can expect from the narrative and its interpretation. The author also considers the aboriginal inhabitants and early peoples of the land, offering context without venturing beyond the stated premise.

• A framework for reading histories of ancient Israel, with a focus on method and truth.


• Discussion of sources, analysis, and how to understand early tribes and peoples in the land.


• Clarifications about the author’s aims, scope, and how this edition differs from others.
