An Index to English Periodical Literature on the Old Testament and Ancient Near Eastern Studies

In his formidable task of indexing over 600 journals, the editor has compiled articles for this volume covering three major subjects; 'Religiongeschichte'; philological and epigraphical studies; the Bible as literature. These are broken down respectively into over 150 subdivisions including monotheism, syncretism, the levitical priesthood, feasts, the sects of Judaism; the genre of wisdom literature; messianic expectation; mythology and folklore, ancient religions (including Babylonian, Egyptian, Hittite, Greek, and Roman); the alphabet; onomatology; grammatical studies on Egyptian, Semitic (including Canaanite, Aramaic, Hebrew, and Phoenician), Ugaritic, Akkadian, Hittite, Greek, Latin, and Persian. Two extensive sections of Hebrew and Greek lexicography are also included. The last section consists of articles dealing with Hebrew poetry, form criticism, and style.
