H500-PSR This vividly illustrated course will introduce students to the key personalities and events of eras covered. From there, we will explore the material culture, religious systems and literature of the Eastern Mediterranean, with a focus on how they help us understand the character of Biblical Israel. We'll also be visiting classic Biblical sites: Megiddo, Hazor, Gezer, and of course, Tell en-Nasbeh. As a special feature, the instructor and Bade Institute staff will organize a small exhibit of artifacts from the Tell en Nasbeh collection for students to examine.
