First published in 1956, God and Man in Early Israel deals with Old Testament history from Abraham to Solomon in the light of modern archaeological research and biblical scholarship, and in terms of the Christian belief in divine revelation. The book is divided into three parts—God and Man in the stories of the Patriarchs; God and Man in the making of a Nation; and God and Man in the founding of a Kingdom. Biblical references are given throughout the book. God and Man in Early Israel is intended as a companion to the study of the Bible, not as a substitute for it. It will be a fascinating read for students and researchers of religion, history, and classics.

J. W. D. Smith was one of the leading religious educationists in Britain in the post‐Second World War period. His early interest in psychology and his work in ecumenical and missionary education during the ‘thirties convinced him of the vital role of religion in personal development.
