This book examines the origins of the Old Testament, one of the
foundation stones of Western Civilization. Adam to Ahab begins with a
fictitious but plausible tale about how the early books of the Bible
were written, providing a means for the reader to enter that ancient
world in which the stories from Adam to Ahab were recorded. Then,
synthesizing the works of nearly 50 outstanding scholars in the
fields of biblical studies and archeology, Fred Stitt presents the
scholarly consensus on the history and myth regarding the events that
occurred prior to 587-586 BCE, before the destruction of the First
Temple.
