About this Event
ISAC welcomes the University of Chicago’s Jeffery Stackert, Professor of Hebrew Bible, for a lecture titled: Judah in the Shadow of the Assyrian Empire. A biblical scholar who situates the Hebrew Bible in the context of the larger ancient Near East, Stackert’s research focuses on the composition of the Pentateuch, ancient Near Eastern prophecy, cultic text, and ancient Near Eastern Law. His first book, Rewriting the Torah: Literary Revision in Deuteronomy and the Holiness Legislation was the recipient of the 2010 John Templeton Award for Theological Promise.
