dc.description.abstract |
The thrust of this work is to study Israelite pre-exilic writing of religious literature. The
beginning of literacy is considered from an archaeological perspective; especially, in the
pre-exilic Israelite community. The study of scribes and their services assist in the quest
for understanding pre-exilic religious writing in Israel. The Bible attests to pre-exilic
religious writing despite the often inferred ‘anachronism.’ The issue of post-exilic
composition of all Old Testament books is a matter of debate as opposed to pre-exilic
writing of some religious sources which is a matter that can be historically verified. |
