ReViews: Unsurpassed Reference Updated

By Philip J. King

The New Enyclopedia of Archaeological Excavations in the Holy Land, Supplementary Volume 5

Ephraim Stern, editor
(Jerusalem: Israel Exploration Society; Washington, DC: Biblical Archaeology Society, 2008) 2,152 pp., $150 (hardcover)

This is a magnificent and massive volume, a veritable tour de force. It is difficult to submit a balanced review, because I cannot think of a negative comment. It is truly a magnum opus. What a marvelous resource for scholars and students alike!
