Biblical Archaeology Review

Biblical Archaeology Review is the flagship publication of the Biblical Archaeology Society. For more than 40 years it has been making the world of archaeology in the lands of the Bible come alive for the interested layperson. Full of vivid images and articles written by leading scholars, this is a must read for anyone interested in the archaeology of the ancient Near East.

Endnote 3 - Temple Architecture: What Can Archaeology Tell Us About Solomon’s Temple?

Ludwig Koehler and Walter Baumgartner, Lexicon in Veteris Testamenti Libros (Leiden, 1958), pp. 230–231; Th. A. Busink, Der Tempel von Jerusalem, I (Leiden, 1970), pp. 180–181. This double usage also occurs in Akkadian. In Akkadian, ekallu can mean either an entire building or its “main room” (Chicago Assyrian Dictionary E, 60; Wolfram von Soden, Akkadisches Handwörterbuch 1, 192).

Endnote 40 - Cult Stands: A Bewildering Variety of Shapes and Sizes

Other writings in which I have treated the topic of offering stands include: LaMoine DeVries, “Incense Altars in the Period of the Judges and Their Significance,” unpublished Ph.D. dissertation, 1975, “Incense Stands and Burners,” Biblical Illustrator (Spring 1979), pp. 82–85; and “Household Altars,” in Discovering the Bible, ed. Tim Dowley (Grand Rapids, MI: Eerdmans, 1986), pp. 51–55.
