As Gaza and Israel explode in crisis and unspeakable tragedies unfold there, we are producing a Middle Series in which we will soon have guests to tell the story of the Palestinian people.
In this episode, my guest, Dr. Michael Ptylik, tells the story of the origin of Jewish people through these discussion points:
From when were the Jewish people called Jewish?
What was their land called?
When did Jews form a polity?
So, was it Judaism or Yahwism?
When did Judaism become a religion?
When did Jewish people begin to leave Israel?
How much of the Bible about the Jewish people is myth? And how much of it is history?
Dr. Pytlik is a professor in Anthropology and Judaic Studies, Director of Judaic Studies, and Director of the Cis Maisel Center for Judaic Studies at Oakland, University, in Rochester, MI.
To learn more about him, you can visit his academic homepage. Also, here is his dissertation on Imagining David, the Man and King, and also a paper on the Canaanite and Judean Cities of Lachish, Israel.
Also, here is my 2021 conversation with Dr. Pytlik about the Golden Age of Muslims and Jews - a period of coexistence.
I hope you enjoy these episodes.
