"[An] impressive set." --Booklist "An excellent and succinct summary of the current state of biblical scholarship... a very valuable addition to biblical studies and should be in any serious library, either personal or institutional."--Bryan Buchanan, Association for Mormon Letters "The OEBB brings together topics that are not always easily found in one source, making this reference material invaluable" --Susanah Hanson, Trinity School for Ministry Theological Librarianship "A good reference work is addictive, and this pair of volumes certainly has that quality." --The Times "Helpful... this set provides a useful entry into the changing field of the Bible and archaeology for students, scholars, and others." --CHOICE, "The Oxford Encyclopedia of the Bible and Archaeology is a useful addition to the list of encyclopedias in these fields. It is different in its approach because it seeks to promote long-term change in geographic and social patterns as a template for interpreting the archaeology of the region, and enhancing the reading of the texts, and because it breaks with biblical archaeology's unfortunate heritage of Albrightian identity and historical particularism." --American Journal of Archaeology"[An] impressive set." --Booklist"An excellent and succinct summary of the current state of biblical scholarship... a very valuable addition to biblical studies and should be in any serious library, either personal or institutional."--Bryan Buchanan, Association for Mormon Letters"A good reference work is addictive, and this pair of volumes certainly has that quality." --The Times"Helpful... this set provides a useful entry into the changing field of the Bible and archaeology for students, scholars, and others." --CHOICE, "The Oxford Encyclopedia of the Bible and Archaeology is a useful addition to the list of encyclopedias in these fields.
