Hermeneutical and historical essays touch on Ancient Israel’s history and its interpretation, as well as on the significance of such individuals as the consular official John Dickson, E.H. Palmer in the Cambridge Libraries, William Lithgow of Lanark, and the contribution to Semitic epigraphy of the explorer Julius Euting.This is volume 375 in the Journal for the Study of the Old Testament Supplement series.
