Focusing on the archaeological significance of Jerusalem, this collection features twenty-four insightful articles by Israel Finkelstein that explore the city's historical dominance from the Middle Bronze Age to the late Hellenistic period. The author critically examines archaeological findings that often contradict biblical narratives, discussing key topics such as the city's expansion, notable biblical figures like Saul and David, and its evolution under various empires, including the Assyrians and Persians. This work sheds light on Jerusalem's unique position in religious and historical contexts.
