About this book

The discovery of Ugarit on the Syrian coast transformed the study of the ancient Near East. Peter C. Craigie introduces the city, its archives and its religious literature, then explains how Ugaritic language and mythology illuminate difficult passages, poetic forms and cultural contexts in the Hebrew Bible. Written for non-specialists as well as students, Ugarit and the Old Testament offers a concise guide to one of archaeology’s most important contributions to biblical scholarship. Originally written in English as “Ugarit and the Old Testament”, the work appears here in an Arabic translation by Firas Al-Sawwah.
