520 $a"Rereading my introduction to the revised edition, I seem to reflect the view that we now have a definitive history of ancient Israel that can be carved in stone, that will need no change. Of course that is not so. Our knowledge and insights continue to expand--and do so excitingly. New excavations are constantly producing new material--and the new finds need interpretation to be understood. Moreover, the broader fields of history, anthropology, sociology, to say nothing of new scientific techniques in the field of archaeology are continually bringing new light and sometimes new debates concerning the history of ancient Israel. So, in all candor, we can only present this as a tentative reconstruction of the history of ancient Israel. Yes, the main lines seem to have been fixed, but the nuances, the details, are constantly changing and broadening our understanding. At whatever level you are coming to this text, however, you are in for a treat. You are getting on a moving train that will continue over the years to open new vistas."--Introduction to the third edition, page xiv
