KG,[2019]©20191 online resource (viii, 186 pages) illustrations (black and white); digital file(s)Archaeology and Bible ;1Includes bibliographical references and index.The dietary prohibitions in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 represent one of the most detailed textual overlaps in the Pentateuch between the Priestly material and Deuteronomy. This is especially the case for the birds: their identities are shrouded in mystery and the reasons for their prohibition debated. Peter Altmann attempts to break this impasse by setting these flyers within the broader context of birds and flying creatures in the Ancient Near East. His investigation considers the zooarcheological data on birds in the ancient Levant, iconographic and textual material on mundane and mythic flyers from Egypt and Mesopotamia, as well as studying the symbolic functions of birds within the texts of the Hebrew Bible itself.Archaeology and BibleBirds of Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14Birds in the BibleJewsDietary lawsBiblical teachingNew TestamentConsumer CityPurity LawsPentateuchal TheoryAltes TestamentBirds in the Bible.JewsDietary lawsBiblical teaching.296.73Altmann Peter989848UkMaJRUBOOK9910367653303321Banned Birds2264057UNINA
