their contents, the scope of the contributions, and the obvious mastery of the subjects discussed, exceeded my expectations: both Steiner and Killebrew. . are to be congratulated for works that deserve to be on the bookshelf -- or the desk -- of anyone working in the field of, notably, Ancient Near Eastern research. * Jan P. Stronk, Classical Journal Online *
the Oxford Handbook of the Archaeology of the Levant will certainly be consulted regularly by students and scholars alike. * Alexander Ahrens, BiOr *
Steiner and Killebrew have delivered exactly what those of us in Biblical Studies needed: an access point for engaging with the world of archaeology as it pertains to the Levant. * Kurtis Peters, Reviews in Biblical and Early Christian Studies *
