Reflection on knowledge is often assumed to emerge with Greek philosophy. Earlier and contemporary modes of thinking in the ancient Near East, including ancient Israel, are assumed to be archaic and often left out of the picture. Against this view, the authors in this volume aim to reconstruct the ancient modes of thinking that developed in the ancient Near Eastern and Mediterranean regions and formed the conditions for developing more distinct forms of cultural and scientific knowledge.
