"The Oxford Handbook of the Historical Books of the Hebrew Bible offers 36 essays
on the so-called 'Historical Books': Joshua, Judges, 1-2 Samuel, 1-2 Kings, Ezra-Nehemiah,
and 1-2 Chronicles. The essays are organized around four nodes: contexts, content,
approaches, and reception. Each essay takes up two questions: (1) what does the topic/area/issue
have to do with the Historical Books? and (2) how does this topic/area/issue help
readers better interpret the Historical Books? The essays engage traditional theories
and newer updates to the same, and also engage the textual traditions themselves which
are what give rise to compositional analyses. Many essays model approaches that move
in entirely different ways altogether, however, whether those are by attending to
synchronic, literary, theoretical, or reception aspects of the texts at hand. The
contributions range from text-critical issues to ancient historiography, state formation
and development, ancient Near Eastern contexts, society and economy, political theory,
violence studies, orality, feminism, postcolonialism, and trauma theory-among others.
Taken together, these essays well represent the variety of options available when
it comes to gathering, assessing, and interpreting these particular biblical books"
