Seevers paints a realistic picture of how Israel and the surrounding nations did battle, adding depthand impact to the relevant biblical accounts. Filled with illustrations, this full-color volume explores the archaeological evidenceand early writings that shed light on biblical warfare between Israel and its neighbors: Egypt, Philistia, Assyria, Babylon, and Persia. Of special interest are Seevers’s treatments of the role that religion played in these ancient warfare practices.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Boyd Seevers</note> <subject> <topic>Bible -- AT</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">221.835502</classification> <classification authority="ddc">B789-S45</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780825436550</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/1/4/_775211094_140.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/1/4/_775211094_140.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2022-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119070438.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
