SURIANO, M., A History of Death in the Hebrew Bible. Oxford University Press, 2018. 314p. Hardback. Suriano has produced a nuanced, yet accessible study of the history of death in the Hebrew Bible that astutely intertwines insights from material culture of Iron Age Judah and from relevant bibli-cal texts. It will help scholars, theologians, and pastors reflect on the role of rituals that relate to death, the significant place that the body occupies in mortuary practices, and the relational layers that surround death in which the family and the individual, the dead and the living, relate to one another and to the Deity.
