The Religion Of Ancient Palestine In The Second Millennium B.C., In The Light Of Archaeology And The Inscriptions (1908)

""The Religion of Ancient Palestine in the Second Millennium B.C., in the Light of Archaeology and the Inscriptions"" is a scholarly work by Stanley Arthur Cook, originally published in 1908. The book explores the religious beliefs and practices of the ancient people of Palestine during the second millennium B.C., drawing on archaeological evidence and ancient inscriptions. Cook examines the role of various deities in the religion of the region, including El, Baal, and Asherah, and discusses the rituals and ceremonies associated with their worship. He also explores the relationship between religion and politics in ancient Palestine, and the impact of foreign influences on the region's religious traditions. This comprehensive study provides valuable insights into the religious history of Palestine and its significance for the wider cultural and historical context of the ancient Near East.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
