  • PHILISTINES in the BOOKS of KINGS* Seymour Gitin W. F
    PHILISTINES IN THE BOOKS OF KINGS* Seymour Gitin W. F. Albright Institute of Archaeological Research, Jerusalem 1. Introduction The Philistines have long been of interest to students of the Bible. Although extra-biblical texts – including Egyptian, Neo-Assyrian, Neo-Babylonian, and Greek sources – provide a number of important insights into the history of the Philistines, evidence that could address in detail questions relating to their origin, their historical, cultural, religious, and economic development, and their ultimate fate has only come to light in the last half-century as a result of archaeological exca- vations. Most importantly, archaeology has shed new light on the role of the Philistines as one of the chief protagonists in the history of biblical Israel. The Philistines, Philistia, and its cities are mentioned a total of 422 times in the Bible, but only 18 of these references occur in the Book of Kings, and these mention only the Philistines and three of their five capital cities, namely, Ekron, Gath, and Gaza. This indi- cates that in stark contrast to other periods, they played only a minor role during the period covered by the Book of Kings – the period of the United and Divided Monarchies that spanned from the 10th through the 8th c. BCE.1 Even though these 18 references offer only a * I wish to thank Edna Sachar for her careful reading of the text and to acknowl- edge the following credits for the illustrations: Figs. 1–2 from the Collection of the Israel Antiquities Authority/photos © the Israel Museum, Jerusalem; Figs. 3–5, 13 courtesy of the Leon Levy Expedition to Ashkelon; Fig.
