Title: A good one
Product review: A fascinating book, and one that has had quite an impact for its length. Davies may stretch his point a bit, and can be a little too creative at times. But he not only presents his overall case well, he was about the first to do it. And no one has yet answered his primary objection to mainstream historians of 'ancient Israel': for the vast majority of the biblical literature, there is absolutely no evidence of the sort required to claim it as historically reliable -- yet they continue to treat it as if it were.
