A fresh exploration of apologetic material that pushes beyond form criticism Andrew Knapp applies modern genre theory to eight royal apologies that served to defend the legitimacy of kings who came to power under irregular circumstances. Knapp examines texts and inscriptions related to Telipinu, Hattushili III, David, Solomon, Hazael, Esarhaddon, Nabonidus, and Darius to identify transhistorical common issues that unite each discourse.

He is a project editor in biblical studies at Eerdmans. Read more
