Synopsis
Excerpt from Old Testament History
For some time past there has been a growing conviction of the need of a more complete and comprehensive study of the Bible in all the colleges. Quite recently the matter has received new emphasis and practical direction. A complete course of Bible study has been outlined by a joint committee representing the Eastern and Western sections of the Association of College Instructors in the Bible, the departments of colleges and universities and of teacher training of the Religious Education Association, the Student Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A., and Sunday School Council.
In harmony with the action just noted The Abingdon Press has arranged for the prompt publication of a series of Bible study texts. The complete course will include the following books: Old Testament History, by Prof. Ismar J. Peritz, of Syracuse University; New Testament History, by Dr. Harris Franklin Rall, President of Iliff School of Theology; The Bible as Literature, by Prof. Irving F. Wood and Prof. Elihu Grant, of Smith College; Social Institutions and Ideals of the Bible, by Prof. Theodore G. Soares, University of Chicago; and The History and Principles of Religious Education, by Prof. F. H. Swift, University of Minnesota.
The volumes on New Testament History and The Bible as Literature have been in use during the college year 1914-1915. Professor Peritz's volume on Old Testament History and Professor Soares' Social Institutions and Ideals of the Bible are now published. The last book in the series, The History and Principles of Religious Education by Professor Swift, is in preparation and will be ready for use in the second semester of 1915-1916.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive history of the Hebrew people during the formative period from its earliest origins to the death of King Solomon in 933 B.C. The author traces the development of the Hebrew tribes from their nomadic origins to their settlement in the land of Canaan, examining the religious, moral, and social ideas that shaped their identity. The book discusses the literary and historical character of the patriarchal stories, evaluates the available archaeological evidence, and examines the social, moral, and religious conditions during the period of occupation. The author also analyzes the emergence of the monarchy, the reign of David, and the establishment of the national monarchy under Solomon. The book concludes by discussing the life during the monarchy, highlighting the social, cultural, and religious aspects of Israelite society. Through a critical examination of biblical and extra-biblical sources, the study provides valuable insights into the formation of the Hebrew people and their unique contributions to Western civilization.
