This week we lay out the whole map of biblical history, from the Late Bronze Age collapse and the first mention of "Israel" on the Merneptah Stele, through the Assyrian and Babylonian conquests, the exile, and the Persian, Hellenistic, and Roman periods. Along the way: why so much of the Bible was compiled and edited after the exile, and how the kingdom of Judah ended up carrying the name "Israel."
