Was the Reign of Jeroboam II a Period of Literary Flourishing?
Recently, some scholars suggested dating the composition of several biblical works to the reign of Jeroboam II. Among these are the history of the Northern Kingdom, the pre-Priestly story of Jacob, the pre-Priestly Exodus story, the »book of the Saviours,« and the Elisha story cycle. This article systematically analyzes these and other works whose composition was attributed to Jeroboam's reign and dismisses the proposed date of composition. It co…
Memories of Monarchical Israel in the Narratives of David's Wars with Israel's Neighbours
The article examines the literary relations between the accounts of David's war with Israel's neighbours (2 Sam 8:1-14) and his war with the Ammonites and Arameans (2 Sam 10:1-11:1a; 12:26-31). I suggest that the former was written later than the pre-Deuteronomistic story cycles of David and Solomon, and that it rests heavily on these works. I further posit that due to the long process of oral transmission of the history of David's rise, this acc…
A Sapiential Composition from Horvat 'Uza
The article discusses a unique literary inscription discovered in the excavations of the Horvat 'Uza fortress, a site located on the southeastern border of the Negev. First, it suggests a new transliteration, translation and detailed commentary on the text. Second, it offers an interpretation of the text, defines its literary genre, discusses its place in relationship to biblical literature and examines its contribution to the evaluation of liter…

Kuntillet 'Ajrud, Sacred Trees and the Asherah
The point of departure for the article is the contrast between the abundance of unique artefacts, religious inscriptions and drawings unearthed at Kuntillet 'Ajrud and the absence of remains associated with cultic activity at the site. It is proposed that this discrepancy in the finding may be accounted for by a tradition of a sacred tree and a cult site around it. The discussion first explores the importance of the cult of sacred trees in the hi…
Dating the Appearance of Imitations of Assyrian Ware in Southern Palestine
The article analyzes the extent and the date of imitation of Assyrian pottery in southern Palestine in the late 8th-7th centuries BCE. Contrary to the commonlyheld assumption that imitations of Assyrian ware appeared in the last third of the 8th century and that a large variety of local vessels imitate Assyrian prototypes, we suggest that imitation began no earlier than the 7th century and that its extentis considerably more limited than has been…
The Judahite Shephelah in the Late 8th and Early 7th Centuries BCE
In a recent article, Blakely and Hardin (2002) reviewed the results of excavations at several sites in the Shephelah and Beersheba Valley and interpreted them as evidence of an early Assyrian attack by Tiglath-pileser III on Judah. This study questions their proposal from both the archaeological and textual perspectives. It suggests an alternative interpretation, according to which the sites under discussion were devastated by Sennacherib in 701 …
The Location of Alashiya
Ancient Near Eastern archives of cuneiform texts contain tablets whose origin is unknown. Letters often do not contain the name or address of the sender. Moreover, the locations of some ancient Near Eastern countries and cities have not yet been clearly established. Hence we perform a research program that intends to fill this gap through a systematic provenance study of the Amarna letters and other Near Eastern texts using petrographic and geoch…
Petrographic Investigation of the Amarna Tablets
The Amarna letters are a collection of 382 tablets from the fourteenth century BCE that represent international and vassal correspondence from local rulers in Canaan and Egyptian pharaohs, primarily Amenophis III and Akhenaten. Even though the Amarna tablets are written in (peripheral) Akkadian, the then current language of diplomacy, they reflect a distinct Northwest Semitic morphology and syntax (and occasionally vocabulary), which is attribute…
The Philistines in Transition
This study of the history of the Philistines during the first quarter of the first millennium B.C.E. has a twofold aim: First, to examine in detail a number of ancient texts, mainly biblical until the rise of the neo-assyrian empire, while evaluating each text in its own right as a potential historical source. Second, to offer a synthetic reconstruction of the course of Philistine history between 1000 - 730 B.C.E., employing the results of the te…

The Hurrians and the End of the Middle Bronze Age in Palestine
The conquest of Canaan by Thutmose III came at the end of a long period during which the urban culture of Palestine had gradually crumbled. The infiltration of northern groups during the sixteenth century B.C. was a major factor in the collapse of the Canaanite urban system. The fall of the Hyksos Dynasty, a close ally of the south Canaanite centres of Palestine, and Ahmose’s conquest of the centre of Shir/lhon (Tell el-cAjjul) further contribute…

Statements of Time-Spans by Babylonian and Assyrian Kings and Mesopotamian Chronology
The statements of time-spans (Distanzangaben) were thoroughly investigated by scholars discussing the problem of Mesopotamian chronology in the second millennium B.C., and were recently the subject of a detailed article. Some of these statements are no more than approximate estimates (e.g. all the statements of time-spans in Nabonidus' inscriptions) and are of no help for the establishment of an exact chronological scheme. Other statements reflec…
The Historical Introduction of the Aleppo Treaty Reconsidered
The Chronology of Alalakh Level VII once again
In an article published in Anatolian Studies XXVI (1976), I have questioned the accepted chronology of level VII in Alalakh, suggesting that four rather than two kings reigned in Alalakh during the period covered by the level VII archive. In the meantime two important works, bearing directly on the subject, have been published by Dr. Dominique Collon. The first is an enlargement of her thesis on the Alalakh seal impressions, including a detailed …

A New Look at the Chronology of Alalakh Level VII
The Alalakh tablets were published by Wiseman in 1953, and in subsequent years the main chronological problems raised by them have been treated in numerous studies. Already in 1954, Landsberger, in a comprehensive paper on the chronology, determined that the Alalakh archive was later than the days of B Ḫammurapi and the destruction of Mari, and suggested identifying Y Ḫammurapi (end of the period of the Mari archives) with Y Ḫammurapi the father …
