"Kingdom of Priests
has served several generations of students and colleagues with
distinction, so it is with delight that I welcome this second edition. I
am pleased to recommend it."--David M. Howard, Bethel Seminary
From the origins and exodus to the restoration and new hope, Kingdom of Priests
offers a comprehensive introduction to the history of Old Testament
Israel. Dr. Eugene Merrill explores the history of ancient Israel not only from Old
Testament texts but also from the literary and archeological sources of
the ancient Near East. This updated and revised second edition
addresses and interacts with current debates in the history of ancient
Israel, offering an up-to-date articulation of a conservative
evangelical position on historical matters. The text is accented with
nearly twenty maps and charts.
