- W4252522735 abstract "THE striking manner in which post-War archaeological investigation in the Near and Middle East has contributed to Biblical studies is concisely reviewed by Prof. S. H. Hooke in “Archaeology and the Old Testament”(London, Thomas Murby and Co., 1938. Pp. 32. 6d. net), one of an excellent little series entitled “After 400 Years”, which deals with various aspects of the Bible in the light of modern scholarship. Whereas at one time the efforts of the archaeologist in the interests of Biblical studies were directed mainly to the search for texts which might confirm the Hebrew record, modern excavations in Mesopotamia, in Syria and in Palestine or Egypt have not merely provided a measure of cor-roboration for the Biblical narrative of the course of events, but also—and to many this may seem of major importance-they have given the Scriptural records a historical setting and cultural background, both within the boundaries of Palestine and in relation to neighbouring peoples and empires, which has elucidated a multitude of obscurities in the Biblical historical narrative as well as in tradition, in ritual and in belief. Thus Prof. Hooke, speaking of the recent investigations of Sir Leonard Woolley at Ur, of Dr. Dorothy Garrod in Palestine, and of others elsewhere, is able to say that “during the last thirty years archaeology has reconstructed the stage … on which the drama of the history of the Hebrew people was played … those great ancient civilizations, which surrounded and profoundly influenced that small country of Canaan”. Making this his starting point, he passes on to show the manner in which the attitude of instructed opinion on Biblical questions has been profoundly modified by recent discovery in regard to the history of writing and its beginnings, early law and legal codes, the conquest of Palestine, the religion, ritual, and mythology of Canaan, the condition of Palestine in the time of the Lachish letters, the Hittites and their empire, and like matters." @default.
