The Last of the Rephaim

- Conquest and Cataclysm in the Heroic Ages of Ancient Israel

About The Last of the Rephaim

Doak explores how the giants of the Hebrew Bible-which represent a connection to primeval chaos-offer insight into central aspects of Israel's symbolic universe. By placing biblical traditions within a broader Mediterranean context regarding giants and the end of the heroic age, Doak sheds new light on monotheism and monarchy in ancient Israel.
