Beschreibung
Combines recent archaeological discoveries in the Middle East with insights culled from the history of writing to address how the Bible first came to be written down and then became sacred Scripture. The author relies on anthropologists and archaeologists to date the writing of biblical literature to the late-Iron Age, well before the Persian and Hellenistic periods as was previously assumed, thus challenging the assertion that widespread literacy first arose in Greece during the fifth century BCE.
