From her immigration to Mandatory Palestine in 1933 until her death in 1950 American-born Dorothy Kahn Bar-Adon worked as a reporter for The Palestine Post (later The Jerusalem Post), while freelancing for periodicals in Palestine and abroad. Bar-Adon covered life in towns, kibbutzim and Arab communities of Mandatory Palestine during this period of World War, armed conflict between Arabs and Jews, immigration to Israel of Holocaust survivors. Close to 60 years after her death, this edited collection of Bar-Adon's writing offers a vivid view both of daily life in the Jewish and Arab communities of pre-State Israel, and of the burning issues of the day.

Die Sammlung der hier veroffentlichten Skarabaen und verwandten Siegel-Amulette entstand zwischen 1975 und 2012 parallel zur Arbeit am "Corpus der Stempelsiegel-Amulette aus Palastina/Israel". Der Zweck war, zu verhindern, dass zahlreiche ungewohnliche und interessante Stucke in nie veroffentlichten Privatsammlungen oder als Bestandteile von Schmuck von der Bildflache verschwanden, und zu garantieren, dass sie der Wissenschaft und der Offentlichkeit erhalten und zuganglich bleiben. Die 700 Stucke wurden so ausgewahlt, dass sie alle wichtigen in Kanaan/Palastina produzierten oder dahin importierten Gruppen und Motive reprasentieren und so eine Art Lehrbuch zu dieser Thematik darstellen. In diesem Sinne sind die vorliegende Sammlung und der Katalog einmalig. The scarabs and related seal amulets published here form a collection that was assembled between 1975 and 2012 during work on the author's Corpus of stamp-seal amulets from Palestine/Israel. The aim was to prevent numerous unusual and interesting pieces disappearing from view in unpublished private collections or as items of jewellery, and to guarantee researchers and the public continuing access to them. The 700 pieces were selected in such a way that the most significant groups and motifs that were produced in or imported into Canaan/Palestine are represented and, collectively, form a kind of textbook on the subject. In that respect, the collection and this catalogue are both unique.

This unique book offers a Catholic view of the Holy Land in the debate that rages among Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Alain Marchadour and David Neuhaus, two biblical scholars and priests living in Jerusalem, clearly analyze the Promised Land--as concept, history, and contested terrain--in Catholic teaching and doctrine. They offer an analytical reading of the entire Christian Bible (Old and New Testaments) with reference to the idea of the Land promised by God. They explore early and medieval attitudes, especially with regard to the Holy Places and the Jewish people. Moving carefully to the present day, they focus on anti-Semitism, the tragedy of the Shoah, Western colonialism in the Middle East, the creation of the State of Israel, and the birth of the Palestinian refugee problem as they examine Catholic reactions to the tumultuous events of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, particularly the renewal of Catholic thought in the aftermath of the Second Vatican Council.
