An Accidental Archaeologist

History & Biography

“Eric Meyers calls himself ‘an accidental archaeologist,’ and then proceeds to describe the career of one of the most influential scholars of ancient Judaism of the twentieth century. Meyers narrates his life from child of Holocaust survivors to ‘biblical archaeologist’ par excellence with vivre and excitement. This volume is a tribute to a long and fruitful life and career of meaning and conscience.”

The Role of the Synagogue in the Aims of Jesus

“Jordan Ryan rightly places the synagogue at the center of Jesus' mission. He masterfully interprets text, archaeology and modern New Testament scholarship to locate Jesus and his earliest followers in Jewish communal life of the first century.”

In this marvelously detailed yet highly accessible volume, he presents not only the Samaritans' religion, literature, history, and material culture but also their life today.
