Hatebag posted:huh, never heard of this habiru business. i thought the jews retconned their own religion to be monotheistic while they were partly in captivity in babylon because they were removed from the holy land so they needed to have a reason for why their god that was previously associated with the land of israel would have magic powers over there too none of that actually happened. this brings me no pleasure to report.

mdemone posted:woof. I'm not sure any of that has historical documents supporting it. Brown is a genius, but that book's about the Christianization of the Roman State and upper class, and the changes that came from increasing amounts of social and political capital directed by bishops. It's a history of institutions and practices, but not of beliefs. His book The Rise of Western Christendom might be more appropriate if you're looking for a history of the spread of the religion or something like that, though again it is not overly concerned with the contents of religious belief, so much as their interplay with social and political dynamics in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages.

joshua, judges, ruth, the samuels and the kingses were my favorite books of the bible as a kid (along with daniel). it's such a messy and chaotic period. the later phrophet period was always harder to place in a historical context for me

But if we are talking about Late Antiquity, the Romans very obviously did not expel all of the Jews from the Holy Land. There were centuries of interaction, Romanization (really Hellenization considering it was in the east), Sassanian incursions and so on, but ultimately, the Palestinians are the same people. First, many of them converted to Christianity, though that was a complicated dynamic as Christianity spread among the trading diaspora and then the gentiles, being resisted most strongly in Jerusalem, then to Islam. I believe Gaza was one of the towns that held out against sieges by both the Sassanians and whatever dynasty the first four Caliphs after Mohammed were. A bunch of Polish turnip farmers coming to "reclaim" a continuously occupied land inhabited by the people they insist on unbroken decent from is one of those things that should raise an eyebrow. zetamind2000 posted:speaking as a south carolinian I can confidently that he'd somehow be more of a fire eater I hadn't considered that, but I guess if the right woke up tomorrow and decided they were totally fine with gays, you would still have Dave Rubin type guys.

Yep MacCulloch splits it into East and West from the beginning, when orthodoxy heads East and imperialism heads West
