Focusing on the economic context of the Bible, this work emphasizes the significance of agrarian practices and the lives of those who cultivated the land in ancient Israel. It challenges traditional views by suggesting that the strength of ancient economies lay not in transient kingdoms or empires, but in the sustainable agricultural practices and community structures of the rural populace. The author integrates archaeological and textual evidence to provide a fresh perspective on the sacred economy of the time.
