The Bible's First Kings

Uncovering the Story of Saul, David, and Solomon

Beschreibung

This book argues that the Jewish kingdom of the Bible was real, as were its first three kings, Saul, David, and Solomon â even if the biblical stories distort their actions to glorify them. Combining fresh archaeological evidence with astute readings of key texts, the authors offer a compelling reconstruction of this fascinating ancient polity.
