The Origins of the Second Temple cover

This book presents a ground-breaking study which re-dates the temple to the reign of Artaxerxes I and considers the most cogent history of the building of the second temple. It reviews the historical inconsistencies in Ezra 1–6 and examines the likely boundaries of Yehud under Artaxerxes I.

'Edelman's book provides a major challenge to the scholarly consensus about the 'origins' of the Second Temple. It will stimulate much discussion.' - Review of Biblical Literature
