The best reference for ancient Near Eastern texts related to the Bible is the The Context of Scripture, edited by Hallo and Younger. This three-volume work is superior to Pritchard’s ANET in many ways. Unfortunately, it is published by Brill and thus is very expensive.![]()
Eisenbrauns has an outstanding deal on the complete set in paperback. Instead of $310, it is available this weekend only for $124 (plus shipping).
If you miss the sale, each volume is available at Amazon for $200-300 each (1, 2, 3). Or you can get the set in Libronix (electronic) format for $299.95.
If anyone has volume 1 in hardback and wants to sell or trade, send me an email (tbolen91 at bibleplaces dot com).
