History of Israelite Religion in the Old Testament Period by Rainer Albertz
No comprehensive history of Israelite religion has been published for some time now, so this new, encyclopaedic work meets a considerable need. The two volumes cover the history of the religion of Israel and Judah from the earliest recognizable beginnings to the Hellenistic period and constantly take into account not only the other religions of the ancient Near East but also Israelite social history. The history of Israel's religion is described as an interplay between historical demands, religious experiences and theological reactions, as the ongoing struggle between different groups over the appropriate religious response to God and the social practice that needs to go with it.
Rainer Albertz, Dr. theol., Jahrgang 1943, ist pensionierter Hochschullehrer fur Altes Testament an der Evangelisch-Theologischen Fakultat der Westfalischen Wilhelms-Universitat Munster.
