| Publisher Description: This volume uses archaeology (and its related sciences), history, and linguistics to enrich the context and interpretation of ten biblical passages. In so doing, Patrick Hunt views some of the many features of cultural, social and historical backgrounds of the texts while giving readers an appreciation of the multi-faceted world of archaeology. Genesis 41, Joseph in Egypt, and Pharaoh's Dream of Seven Cows Joshua 5 and Flint Knives I Kings 10 and Why Solomon's Legendary Gold is Gone II Chronicles 32, II Kings 19, and the Destruction of Sennacherib's Army Besieging Jerusalem Mark 14:3 and an Archaeological Solution to a Philological Problem Corinthian Bronze, Demeter, and the Glossolalia in I Corinthians 8, 13, 14 From these and other cases Hunt shows how an understanding of the richness of the biblical text is enhances when using archaeology and its associated disciplines. |
