Israel Finkelstein, The Forgotten Kingdom: 2013

"[T]he expanding late-Iron I/early Iron IIA Gibeon/Gibeah (Saulide) polity to the north, into the Jezreel Valley or its margins, near the traditional old Egyptian stronghold of Beth-shean, and to the southwest, near the international road on the coastal plain, posed a threat to the revived Egyptian interest in Canaan in the early days of the Twenty-Second Dynasty. Sheshonq I decided to intervene, making the highlands entity a major target of his campaign."(Israel Finkelstein, The Forgotten Kingdom: 2013: 60)

"1 Kings 12:26-33 is a polemic Dtr fiction that has no reliable historical information about the time of Jeroboam I, but reflects historical facts of the time of Jeroboam II (A.Berlejung, 2009) ... This means that the tradition about the erection of the bamah at Dan is a retrojection into the past of a reality from the days of Jeroboam II, in the first half of the eight century B.C.E."(Israel Finkelstein, The Forgotten Kingdom: 2013: 75)

이스라엘 핑켈스타인의 잊혀진 북왕국 복원프로그램을 읽고 있는데(The Forgotten Kingdom), 예전에 D. E. Fleming, The Legacy of Israel in Judah's Bible에서 문헌학적으로 제시된 북왕국의 고대성/우월성을, 고고학으로 더 합당하게 제시하고 있습니다. 읽어내려갈수록 Dtr의 (당연할수밖에없는) 역사적무지를 거듭 확인하면서, 동시에 이런 것이 역사편찬의 일반적인 방식이었음을 확인하게됩니다. 문제는 Dtr의 신앙이데올로기를 절대적 팩트로 받아들이는 무조건적인 비학문적태도라고 생각합니다.
