The Ancient Canaanites: A Captivating Guide to the Canaanite Civilization That Dominated the Land of Canaan Before the Ancient Israelites

De: Captivating History

Narrado por: Duke Holm

Did you know the ancient Canaanites invented the alphabet?

The Bible references Canaan several times. For example, God commanded the Israelites to destroy the Canaanites following the Israeli flight from Egypt.

However, the actual history of this civilization doesn’t quite match theological sources. For one thing, the Canaanite civilization consisted of a multitude of different peoples from the same ethnic group but different cultures.

The region also had frequently redefined borders, and very few written records remain of Canaan, making it difficult for scholars to research. It can therefore be hard for people to find an easily understood and cohesive resource on this fascinating civilization.

But that is about to change. In this new captivating history audiobook, you will discover the truth about the ancient Canaanites.

The Ancient Canaanites: A Captivating Guide to the Canaanite Civilization That Dominated the Land of Canaan Before the Ancient Israelites includes:

• Revolutionary findings provided by modern archaeological detective techniques
• A simple explanation of what Caanan is and where it's located

Solid Introduction to the Canaanites

This is a good introduction to the history of Canaan and the Canaanites. There are some elements which have been changed in light of new scholarship, but nothing earth shattering for an introductory text.

The most significant erroneous points are those that separate the Israelites from the Canaanites prior to the Babylonian conquest and labeling the Israelites as monotheists. The Israelites and Judahites practiced Yahwehistic henotheism and remained Canaanites until the defeat of Judah and the Babylonian Captivity. The new religion of Judaism developed during the Captivity would begin the move towards true monotheism, which would be realized around 200 BCE.

Overall, this is a good place to start. It gracefully handles the touchy issues related to historical realities versus religious mythology and does a fine job of summarizing one of the longest lasting ethnicities in history. The narration is great and easy to understand.

best book

I used to remember how fond I was with the Bible, but I couldn’t seem to find the time to study it closely. And now, I came across the book of Canaanites and it piqued my curiosity. This is the best book I’ve read about the subject and I’m looking forward to more of the author’s works.

Land of Canaan

The Author has explained, in detail, how we have all been misled by incorrect English translations of key terms in Joshua and elsewhere about the Amorites, Canaanites Amalekites and others, and the Conquest itself. The Conquest is NOT what you thought it was.

Enjoy the book

Canaan's Secret's suspense and intriguing plot made for a great audiobook. It was so good I listen to it twice, and it was even better the second time.

quite an awesome book here.

And because the publisher, Captivating History always satisfies me, I got another of their book. This awesome guide has straightened out the common myths surrounding the ancient Canaanites.

good

This is a very informative, brief history which is helpful in the study of the Bible. Highly recommend it. Wish it had been a little deeper.

Great book

A great book for anyone who is seeking to learn about the ancient Canaanites. Written by one of the first archaeologists to dig in what was Civilization.

pretty basic

wish there was more, but, as the book states, very little is known of canaan

Fine job here.

I pretty think Captivating History did a fine and accurate job with this book considering the narrating time was only close to two hours. How they were known as, what their culture was, and their beliefs are just some of the interesting topics here in this book.

Pretty amazed with this history audio book.

I’m pretty amazed with what I’ve just heard from this audiobook especially on the Canaanites artifacts. I immediately searched for them in the web. I came to love the Canaanites more after hearing this.
