World Religions

“Schneider's state-of-the-art introduction is bound to become a standard textbook on Mesopotamian religion.”

God in Translation

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This is an amazing book. Mark Smith takes the reader inside the intellectual universe of ancient Israel and its neighbors in a search for the possibilities of cultural translation. Learned, thoroughly researched, and written in clear and sober prose, this study defines a new level in our understanding of ancient Near Eastern theological thought.”

Poetic Heroes

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Poetic Heroes offers a tremendous amount of things to learn, to enjoy, to savor, and to argue about. A profound reflection on warrior culture in the world of the Bible by a great scholar.”
