by Karel van der Toorn (Author)
We think of the "Hebrew Bible" as the Book - and yet it was produced by a largely nonliterate culture in which writing, editing, copying, interpretation, and public reading were the work of a professional elite. This work offers an introduction to the scribes of ancient Israel - the main figures behind the "Hebrew Bible".
