Book Synopsis The Last of the Rephaim by : Brian R. Doak
Book excerpt: Doak explores how the giants of the Hebrew Bible--which represent a connection to primeval chaos--offer insight into central aspects of Israel's symbolic universe. By placing biblical traditions within a broader Mediterranean context regarding giants and the end of the heroic age, Doak sheds new light on monotheism and monarchy in ancient Israel.
