Excerpt from The Culture of Ancient Israel IN fixing the contribution to civilization of the various nations Of antiquity, the gift of ancient Israel is averred to be religious: Israel, the scholars tell us, gave the world the first great monotheistic religion. But whether they think to emphasize the great ness of this contribution, or whether they are unwilling to concede more to the genius of the Hebrew people than is absolutely neces sary, they persist in denying that Israel ac complished anything more for general cul ture. For years the learned world has positively asserted that ancient Israel was entirely deficient in works of Art, Music, Poetry, - in short everything that makes for the esthetic life of a nation. Then gradual ly, thanks to the intrepid championship of a few men, the Bible has been Shown to be a treasure trove of priceless literary wealth; and thenceforth the world has reluctantly conceded that Israel did possess the baser forms of literature common to all barbarous peoples; but as for an Hebrew drama, - it was deemed a plain contradiction of terms. And the same incredulous attitude was as sumed toward Hebrew Art and Music. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Culture of Ancient Israel Indeed, what an astonishing wealth and variety of separate material is here ready at hand! The history of the people of Israel, in fact, shares with the common and many-sided life of humanity the eminent quality of being interesting at whatever point we may touch it. We may turn our attention to characters more particularly belonging to political history and we shall behold Saul, David, Ahab; or to the heroes of the soul, and we shall encounter Moses, Samuel, Elijah. We behold the ruin of the people as a political nation through Babylonian conquest, and the resurrection of the people as a religious sect through Ezra and Nehemiah. The ideal heroical figures of the early Maccabees justly awaken our admiration, and even their degenerate descendants, during the period of the people's decadence, are themselves not altogether destitute of a certain attraction. The truculent grandeur of a King Herod, and the appalling extermination of the nation by the Roman sword - the most heartrending catastrophe, perhaps, that history ever has witnessed - fitly close this grand historical panorama, in which on every side and at all times we are confronted by entrancing phenomena, arousing all our interest.

Excerpt from Education in Ancient Israel: From Earliest Times to 70 A. D Most treatments of Hebrew education available in English are either out of date or inadequate. The longer one studies the origins of modem education the more difficult does he find it to explain the meagerness of the accounts of Hebrew education thus far presented. Authors of educational histories who have felt it incumbent upon them to include in their treatment of Greek education a discussion of music, dancing, physical and military training, have omitted these and other equally important topics from their discussions of Hebrew education. The fact that the information concerning these phases of ancient Hebrew education is in many cases meager and incomplete is no reason for failing to present such data as are available. The following account is, I believe, the first attempt in English to give education in Ancient Israel any such broad treatment as has long been accorded to that of other ancient peoples. There is no people whose history presents more difficulties, and none which leaves more room for the play of the personal equation of the writer. It is not to be expected that all the positions presented in this little volume will commend themselves to every reader. It is not offered in any sense as an apologetic of any theory of Hebrew history. Its aim is set forth in the statement of its problem (see page 4). It is hoped that whatever may be its defects it will lead the reader to see that the environment in which the native genius of the Hebrews ripened was a rich and varied one, and that the educative influences were many, not few.

We think of the Hebrew Bible as the Book--and yet it was produced by a largely nonliterate culture in which writing, editing, copying, interpretation, and public reading were the work of a professional elite. The scribes of ancient Israel are indeed the main figures behind the Hebrew Bible, and in this book Karel van der Toorn tells their story for the first time. His book considers the Bible in very specific historical terms, as the output of the scribal workshop of the Second Temple active in the period 500-200 BCE. Drawing comparisons with the scribal practices of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, van der Toorn clearly details the methods, the assumptions, and the material means of production that gave rise to biblical texts; then he brings his observations to bear on two important texts, Deuteronomy and Jeremiah. Traditionally seen as the copycats of antiquity, the scribes emerge here as the literate elite who held the key to the production as well as the transmission of texts. Van der Toorn's account of scribal culture opens a new perspective on the origins of the Hebrew Bible, revealing how the individual books of the Bible and the authors associated with them were products of the social and intellectual world of the scribes. By taking us inside that world, this book yields a new and arresting appreciation of the Hebrew Scriptures.
