Ras Shamra Parallels: The Texts from Ugarit and the Hebrew B...

Rummel, Stan

Summary

This scholarly work presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of Ugaritic texts from Ras Shamra and corresponding passages in the Hebrew Bible. It systematically examines linguistic, literary, and thematic parallels between the two corpora, highlighting shared motifs, structures, and expressions. The study offers critical insights into the cultural and religious contexts of the ancient Near East, elucidating how Ugaritic literature informs the understanding of biblical narratives and theological concepts. By juxtaposing these ancient texts, the work contributes to the broader field of comparative Semitic studies and enhances the interpretation of biblical literature through the lens of Ugaritic parallels.
