About the Author
M.M. Silver is professor of Jewish history and world history at the Max Stern Yezreel Valley College and at the University of Haifa in Israel.
This lively narrative of the history of a region of considerable
importance in world history deserves a wide readership. With
evident affection and deep thought about the place in which he
himself is at home, Matt Silver has incorporated a wide spectrum of
scholarship into a carefully constructed account of the
significance of Galilee in various religious and national
traditions. His book will enlighten all who live in Galilee or
visit the region, enabling them to gain a deeper appreciation of
the significance of Galilee for traditions apart from their
own.
