Transjordan and the Southern Levant

Previous research has treated the Transjordanian regions - from the early Iron Age I to the Hellenistic period - as a geographically and/or culturally marginal area. The contributors of this volume demonstrate that the Transjordan was integrated beyond the Southern Levant into the Mediterranean, Egypt, and Mesopotamia. They deal with the unresolved questions surrounding Transjordan and its influence on religious and cultural history. In particular, this volume is the first to deal with Transjordan in the Persian period from a multi-disciplinary perspective - a period that has been ignored almost completely in current research, in favor of the Iron Age. With contributions from archaeology, Hebrew Bible studies, social and cultural history, Assyriology, ancient history, and religious history, this work provides a comprehensive and precise treatment of the topic.
