Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the differences between the Biblical account of the development of religion in Israel and the account presented by critical scholars. These scholars argue that the Bible's history is largely inaccurate and that the religion of Israel evolved gradually over time, initially consisting of superstitious beliefs and practices. The author, on the other hand, contends that the Bible's account is accurate and that the religion of Israel was founded on a covenant between God and the patriarchs, with God revealing himself progressively throughout history. The book discusses the patriarchal period, the Mosaic age, the age of the prophets, and the post-exilic period, examining the critical view of each and presenting a contrasting biblical view. The author's goal is to demonstrate the validity of the Biblical account and to challenge the critical view that has become prevalent in modern scholarship This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
