Tóm tắt/ chú giải | : | The subject [of this book] as a whole is important not only for the Old Testament as such but also for the general history of the ancient Near East, in terms of which the culture, history, and religion of the Old Testament must be studied. Because the Hebrews were a particular people living in a certain historical period, the significance of the message found in their writings will only be grasped most fully against such a background. For in the last resort, the concern of the Old Testament archaeologist must be a theological one involving the understanding and exposition of the Scriptures. Whilst it must be recognized that archaeological discovery cannot and ought not to be required to prove the 'truth' of the Old Testament, it can be expected to furnish such environmental information as will enable us to see the sacred record in true historical and cultural perspective. It is only by this means that we shall begin to appreciate properly the moral and spiritual dimensions of the Divine revelation to man. |
