book emphasizes academic study of the Bible and not just one (Christian) confessional approach to its subject matter. It should be emphasized, however, that this second edition preserves a focus on the impact of successive empires on the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament/Tanakh, even though it no longer includes the previous subtitle “sacred texts and imperial contexts.”

      Finally, I have been profoundly helped in this revision by the feedback provided by colleagues and numerous classes of students at my institution, Union Theological Seminary in New York City, especially the Fall 2019 section of my Introduction to the Old Testament. I want to offer specific thanks to several colleagues for sharing bibliography and/or reading drafts of sections and suggesting revisions, including Charles Carter, Thomas Dozeman, Esther Hamori, Mahri Leonard‐Fleckman, Robert Rezetko, Jerusha Rhodes, William Schniedewind, and my wife (and fellow biblical scholar) Colleen Conway. I dedicate this revision to my beloved parents, Adrienne and John Carr, both of them teachers and lifelong learners, even as I now mourn the loss of my father two years ago.
