More about the book
Focusing on the post-exilic period, this analysis explores a neglected writer's contribution to Jewish community inclusion debates, particularly regarding the Samaritan sect. Challenging the widely accepted view of a unified authorship between Chronicles and Ezra-Nehemiah, Dr. Williamson argues for their separate authorship. He examines the narrative structure and the term "Israel," concluding that the Chronicler sought to counteract exclusivity and promote the reunion of "all Israel" around Jerusalem and its temple. This work appeals to scholars of the Old Testament and Jewish history.
