Reviews for The Posen Library of Jewish Culture and Civilization, Volume 1: Ancient Israel, from Its Beginnings through 332 BCE

A very nice approach to help readers integrate source material. Folks do not always realize how traditions and convictions have evolved over the centuries. -Jack M. Sasson, Vanderbilt University
