The books of the Old Testament are often thought of as being remote and `primitive'. In fact, they were written by thoroughly learned men, educated in the traditionaL schools of ancient Israel. This book presents a fresh and enlivening case for the strong influence which this schooling must have had on the writers of the stories, poetry, and proverbs of the Bible.
