JS 220 - Israel in the Ancient Near East (3 Cr.)
The major literary product of Israelite civilization, the Bible is the primary vehicle for the understanding of this civilization. Critical examination of the Bible and its literature should, therefore, induce a more informed knowledge of literary form, style, and function in ancient Israel; an intelligent understanding of Israel’s culture and history during the first millennium BCE; and insight into Israel’s religious ideas, institutions, and theology that informs this great literature. Prerequisite: sophomore standing. Fall semester Department.
