Synopsis-- Examines the Bible's military accounts-- Explores the tactics and strategy of ancient armies-- First paperback publication, complete with all illustrationsIn Battles of the Bible Chaim Herzog, former President of the State of Israel, and Mordechai Gichon, Emeritus Professor of Archaeology at Tel Aviv University, present a comprehensive work on the wars of ancient Israel. Both authors have seen extensive military service in the region which features in biblical accounts.The Bible covers a vast period of military history, from the invasion of Canaan by Joshua's Israelites, through the conquest of the kingdom by David and Solomon and the split of the kingdom into Judah and Israel, to the Maccabees' rebellion against Seleucid domination. The reliability of these accounts is supported by their technical accuracy and by descriptions of topographic conditions. They provide strategic and tactical lessons still applicable today and are a key to understanding the wider history of the region.Battles of the Bible is a fascinating and valuable work, not only for its exacting scrutiny, but also for its insight into the relevance of biblical accounts and their continuing value.

Its a secular history
The authors try so hard to dismiss the bible however in there finds prove the bible more accurate with every account. Also they refer to Isreal as palistine during the conquest of Joseph when its name was Canaan . So they do whatever they can to justify Palestinians claim.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
