Archival Historiography in Jewish Antiquity

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Archival Historiography in Jewish Antiquity argues that the later, often-overlooked texts of Ezra and Nehemiah help reveal how the Bible received its unusual form. Laura Carlson Hasler suggests that the concept of archival historiography, a form of writing not generally attributed to the biblical writers, makes sense of Ezra and Nehemiah's unusual format and place in the Bible.
