Books by Emanuel Pfoh

The papers in this anthology represent the proceedings of the Anthropology and the Bible session from the European Association of Biblical Studies Annual Meeting held in Lincoln, UK (July 2009).

Taking advantage of critical methodology for history-writing and the use of anthropological insights and ethnographic data from the modern Middle East, this study aims at providing various understandings on the emergence of Israel in ancient Palestine and the socio-political dynamics at work in the Levant during antiquity.
