This work argues that the orthodox Ancient Near Eastern chronology is fundamentally wrong and that consequently the histories of the Great Kingdoms of Egypt, Babylonia, Assyria and Hatti, along with other minor kingdoms such as Israel/Judah, must be radically rewritten. |
|  | The Syriac Contribution to Arab Civilization by Muhammad al-Hamad
The aim of this book is to demonstrate the movement of Greek thought into Arabic via the Syriac language. Al-Hamad devotes the four sections of this book to profiling four different authors who either wrote in Syriac or whose works were transmitted into Arabic via Syriac translations: Porphyry, John Philoponos (‘the Grammarian’), Jacob of Edessa and Dionysios of Tellmahre. |
|  | Jews in Iraq after the Muslim Conquest by Michael Morony
As the oldest organized religion in Sassanian Iraq, Judaism serves as a kind of model for other religious organizations in the region. After considering the growth of Judaism in Iraq during the Sassanian period, Morony notes the connections between the Jewish and Aramaean populations as well as the intermixed ethnic communities in which Jews played a part. Social, administrative, and religious issues are all considered. Messianic expectations as they continued to develop in the Jewish community in diaspora round out this discussion of Judaism as a fully developed religion in Iraq under Islamic rule. |
|  | Virtuous Reading: Aphrahat's Approach to Scripture by Jeff Childers
The epistemology of the mid-fourth-century Christian scholar in Persia, Aphrahat, presumes that the human mind and the task of biblical interpretation are caught up in a dynamic experience of Christian spiritual transformation. In short, for the Persian Sage, good Bible interpretation requires nothing less than the total person—inner and outer, in community and before God. In Aphrahat’s Demonstrations, we encounter a scholar who not only presents this remarkably integrated set of ideals but is also an impressive practitioner of them. |

Albert Socin (1844-1899) traveled widely in the middle east and published several works on inscriptions, Arabic, Neo-Aramaic, and Kurdish. This volume contains texts from various regions between Urmia and Mosul, a collection of 27 narratives (including proverbs and songs) that offer a wealth of cultural information. The introduction orients this publication to previous work in modern Aramaic dialects and gives information on the regions and people from whom the texts come. The original text is given in east Syriac script (with vowels) and facing transcription; the German translation, with explanatory notes, occupies the second half of the book. The book will be of interest to linguists, historians, and anthropologists. | |
