About this book

Canaanite Myth and Hebrew Epic: Essays in the History of the Religion of Israel by Frank Moore Cross. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780674091764.

The essays in this volume address key aspects of Israelite religious development. Frank Moore Cross traces the continuities between early Israelite religion and the Canaanite culture from which it emerged; explores the tension between the mythic and the historical in Israel’s religious expression; and examines the reemergence of Canaanite mythic material in the apocalypticism of early Christianity and the Dead Sea Scrolls.
