Samenvatting

Engaged with previous scholarship and bringing to bear new material and literary evidence, this book offers a new understanding of the history, identity, and relationship of early Samaritans and Jews. While the focus has traditionally been on the "ten lost tribes" and on long-held antagonisms between Jews and Samaritans, close examination of a wider array of literary evidence (including biblical texts and the Dead Sea Scrolls) and new material evidence (archaeological excavations, ancient inscriptions, papyri, coins) reveals important continuities and convergences between Judeans and Samaritans in the ancient world.
