by Laura Hulda Wild

Book Overview

Geographic Influences In Old Testament Masterpieces is a scholarly work written by Laura H. Wild and published in 1915. The book explores the influence of geography on the Old Testament, specifically on the creation and development of its literary masterpieces. Wild examines the ways in which the physical environment of the ancient Near East shaped the language, themes, and imagery of biblical texts. She argues that the natural features of the region, such as mountains, deserts, and rivers, played a significant role in the formation of the religious and cultural traditions of the Israelites. The book is divided into chapters that focus on different aspects of geography, including the wilderness, the sea, and the land of Israel. Each chapter includes detailed analysis of relevant biblical passages and references to other ancient texts and sources. Overall, Geographic Influences In Old Testament Masterpieces is a valuable resource for scholars and students of biblical studies, geography, and ancient Near Eastern history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
