Description
The Discovery of Ugarit and its Impact on Old Testament Studies In 1929, archaeologists made a remarkable discovery at Ras Shamra in Syria, uncovering the remains and libraries of the ancient city of Ugarit. This excavation has had a profound impact on our understanding of the Bible, particularly the Old Testament. This book tells the story of that discovery and explores its significance for biblical studies over the past 50 years. Written in an approachable style, it provides insight into the life and civilization of Ugarit, as well as the ways in which recent archaeological finds have updated our understanding of the Old Testament.
