  • Vol. V, No. 11 the Ancient Near East Today
    November 2017: Vol. V, No. 11 The Ancient Near East Today A PUBLICATION OF FRIENDS OF ASOR TABLE OF CONTENTS Beyond the Texts: An Archaeological Portrait of Ancient Israel 1 and Judah An Affair of Herbal Medicine? The ‘Special’ Kitchen in the Royal 2 Palace of Ebla The Bible as Tool for Learning to Evaluate Competing Voices in 3 an Age of “Fake News” Not Just for the Birds: Pigeons in the Roman and Byzantine Near 4 East Chapter One Beyond the Texts: An Archaeological Portrait of Ancient Israel and Judah Beyond the Texts: An Archaeological Portrait of Ancient Israel and Judah By: William G. Dever Countless books have been written about ancient Israel. But this work is the first mainstream history of ancient Israel to be published in English in 40 years. It also differs from previous scholarship by attempting to prove an alternative, archaeological based history, or as the title has it, a “portrait.” I am a veteran of more than 50 years of fieldwork and research in the archaeology of Israel, with hundreds of publications. Even so, I believe that a portrait is the best that I, or anyone, can offer. The distinguishing feature of this book is the William G. Dever employment of a rich array of archaeological data on ancient Israel and her neighbors as the primary evidence for illustrating the origins, the settlement horizon, and the monarchy, ca. 1300-586 BCE. In each chapter the biblical texts are brought into the picture only secondarily, and then only to compare and contrast their idealistic narratives with the “real- life” portrait that archaeology now provides.

Immediately after experiencing deliverance from the LORD, David doubts God’s protection of his life. In 27:1, David says, “Now I shall perish one day by the hand of Saul. There is nothing better for me than that I should escape to the land of the Philistines.” What a drastic change of heart and attitude! David turns to his flesh as he worries whether God will continue to watch over him. Certainly we have experienced this before, but God has a perfect track record of never letting His people down. Make sure the group understands that God’s promises are always just that – promises! He can’t break them. What’s the Problem?

  • Evolution of Ancient Israel's Politics
    Evolution of Ancient Israel’s Politics Tribes, Monarchies, and Foreign Empires Three Significant Eras • In his writings on the Politics of Ancient Israel sourced from the U of A website, Norman Gottwald suggests ancient Israel moved through three main ‘zones’ (or eras) of political structure. • Tribal Era (1,200 BCE – 1,000 BCE) • Monarchic Era (1,000 BCE – 586 BCE) • Colonial Era (586 BCE – 135 CE) • Brief revival of the monarchy under the Hasmonean Dynasty, 140 - 63 B.C.E • He notes that these eras did not totally displace one another, but overlapped and aspects of each period can be seen in future eras. - https://bibleinterp.arizona.edu/articles/2001/politics Tribal Era (1,200 BCE – 1,000 BCE) • Jacob (renamed Israel) had 12 sons known for 12 tribes of Israel. • No tribe for Joseph but tribes for his sons Ephraim and Manasseh • Tribe of Levi owned no property. They were the Priestly tribe supported by the other tribes. • “The Lord said to Aaron (Levite), ‘You will have no inheritance in their land, nor will you have any share among them; I am your share and your inheritance among the Israelites.” Numbers 18:20 From Tribes to Nation-building • In Ancient Israel’s history up to the Exodus, leadership was Tribal. • Leadership within the tribe was inherited similarly to everything else, emphasis on the oldest living son. • Beginning with the Exodus, we have our first example of ‘national unity’. Moses was God’s chosen leader to bring the Hebrew people out of slavery to the Holy Land, where they are referenced as Israelites.

  • 1 the Main Point 2 Saul Pursues David 3 Bible Summary (1 Samuel
    simplybible.com/f623.htm Author: Ron Graham David’s Adventures —And this second king’s success Time ~ 5. Kingdom of David Span ~ 120 years Books ~ 2Samuel, 1Kings, 1Chronicles, Poetry Figures ~ Saul, David, Solomon Begins with ~ The people of Israel seek a king This lesson looks at the time in which David, not yet king, grows in power and popularity among the people. 1 The Main Point Behind this story is contrast between the heart of Saul, and the heart of David. Saul is filled with envy and self­pity, whilst the heart of David has only love, forgiveness, and a spirit of reconciliation. Saul is destroyed by his own evil heart whilst David must endure the long tribulation that Saul's jealousy causes him. Evil hearts not only destroy themselves, but also hurt badly those who should be among their loved ones. 2 Saul Pursues David David is not yet king. However he grows in power and popularity among the people. The people have a song they sing, " Saul has slain his thousands, And David his tens of thousands". King Saul is envious and furious, and he sets out to kill David. However, Saul's son Jonathan loves David very deeply and he helps David avoid Saul's plots and traps. David has opportunities to kill Saul, but he spares his life and tries to be reconciled to him. Saul makes peace occasionally, but it is never long before Saul's heart turns against David again. So there is a long saga of Saul's pursuit of David, and David's escapes from Saul.

  • Chastised Rulers in the Ancient Near East
    Chastised Rulers in the Ancient Near East Dissertation Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree doctor of philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By J. H. Price, M.A., B.A. Graduate Program in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Samuel A. Meier, Advisor Daniel Frank Carolina López-Ruiz Bill T. Arnold Copyright by J. H. Price 2015 Abstract In the ancient world, kings were a common subject of literary activity, as they played significant social, economic, and religious roles in the ancient Near East. Unsurprisingly, the praiseworthy deeds of kings were often memorialized in ancient literature. However, in some texts kings were remembered for criminal acts that brought punishment from the god(s). From these documents, which date from the second to the first millennium BCE, we learn that royal acts of sacrilege were believed to have altered the fate of the offending king, his people, or his nation. These chastised rulers are the subject of this this dissertation. In the pages that follow, the violations committed by these rulers are collected, explained, and compared, as are the divine punishments that resulted from royal sacrilege. Though attestations are concentrated in the Hebrew Bible and Mesopotamian literature, the very fact that the chastised ruler type also surfaces in Ugaritic, Hittite, and Northwest Semitic texts suggests that the concept was an integral part of ancient near eastern kingship ideologies. Thus, this dissertation will also explain the relationship between kings and gods and the unifying aspect of kingship that gave rise to the chastised ruler concept across the ancient Near East.

Although scholars today debate what merits the definition “king,” the terms tradi- tionally translated this way – Sumerian lugal, Akka- dian šarru(m), Egyptian nsw, Hittite haššuš, West Se- mitic mlk (Heb. melek) – all refer to a single, individual sovereign ruling a given people or re- gion. Kings were by definition male – the famous example of the Egyptian ruler Hatshepsut being an exception that proves the rule, as although her sex was no secret, she was depicted iconographically as male through much of her reign. Although modern monarchs tend to be thought of in narrowly political terms, the ancient Near Eastern king, as the specially chosen representative of the gods, had a much broader ambit.

  • Nagid: a Re-Examination in the Light of the Royal Ideology in the Ancient Near East
    Nagid: A re-examination in the light of the royal ideology in the ancient near east Jeong Bong Kim & D J Human1 Department of Old Testament Studies University of Pretoria Abstract This article argues that nagid indicates divinely sanctioned leader of Israel in 1 Samuel 9:1-10:16 and 11:1-11. The use of nagid is intricately interplayed with that of melek in the context of 1 Samuel 8-12. In the Saul tradition (1 Sm 9:1-10:16; 11:1-11) nagid signifies the leadership of Saul as a divinely sanctioned kingship, unlike in the context of the Deuteronomistic History (DH). The royal ideology of the ancient Near East (ANE) provides an ideological background of the kingship of Saul. 1. INTRODUCTION The role and status of a nagid are far from obvious (Ishda 1999:57; cf Flanagan 1981:67-68). The relation between melek and nagid is also unclear. Thus, the focus of the brief discussion is rather to perceive the striking word play in the different layers of traditions. The discussion, first of all, requires a brief explication of the role and status of nagid, since it shows the complicated process of its practical use. The term frequently refers to a king in Samuel and Kings (Saul [1 Sm 9:16; 10:1], David [1 Sm 13:14; 25:30; 2 Sm 5:2; 6:21; 7:8], Solomon [1 Ki1:35], Jeroboam [1 Ki 14:7], Baasha [1 Ki 16:2], and Hezekiah [2 Ki 20:5]. Exceptions come from Ezekiel and Daniel for a king of Tyre [Ezk 28:2], the king as anointed one [Dn 9:25, 26], and a general indication of a king [Dn 11:22]), whereas in Chronicles, Job, and Proverbs it is connected with religious and general leaders such as an army chief, an official of a palace, 1 This article is slightly revised from part of chapter 2 and 3 of a thesis for the PhD degree submitted in 2008 to the Faculty of Theology, University of Pretoria, completed under the supervision of Prof Dr D J Human in the Department of Old Testament Studies.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT The subject of this thesis is King Saul of Israel. Though Saul is depicted negatively in the biblical narrative, carefiil examination of the Books of Samuel and part of the Book of Judges will not only reveal new clues suggesting a more favourable image of Saul, but will also provide a new insight into his reign as well as its effect on Israel long after his death. In contrast to his biblical image, such clues show Saul to have been a strong ruler who successfully united the various Israelite groups, a unity which was not to be achieved by any later leader.
