Lester L. Grabbe is Professor Emeritus of Hebrew Bible and Early Judaism at the University of Hull. He is founder and convenor of the European Seminar in Historical Methodology. A recent book is Ancient Israel:What Do We Know and How Do We Know it?
"This is an important readable survey of a contentious issue."
--Theological Book Review Feed the Minds
"Grabbe and his colleagues merit congratulations for focusing
attention seriously on the methodological problems and pitfalls
involved in reconstructing the historical setting for biblical
texts- and in assessing their reliability in turn for the
reconstruction of historical Israel... This vigorous debates
recorded in the pages of this fine collection will sharpen thinking
on basic issues of approach and lead to more sophisticated
formulation of methodologies." -Erich S. Gruen, Review of Biblical
Literature, October 2004
