How did ancient Israelites live? What did they eat; and what affected their health? How did the family function? To answer these and similar questions; Borowski describes the natural setting and the people who occupied the land as well as the rural and urban economic activities in which ancient Israelites engaged; especially as they related to the family and social-political structure. The book addresses cultural; social; and religious activities as well as art; music; and the place of writing in Israelite society. Drawing on textual and archaeological evidence and written in nontechnical language; this will be a standard text for undergraduate Hebrew Bible courses and of particular interest to scholars; graduate students; pastors; rabbis; and nonspecialists.
