This collection of sixteen papers is a significant addition to our textual evidence for the world of the Bible: it presents over fifty inscriptions, tablets, and seals from the collections of Shlomo Moussaieff, in Hebrew, Idumean, and cuneiform. Most of these texts are being published here for the first time.
