Why read it?
1 author picked What Did the Ancient Israelites Eat? Diet in Biblical Times as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The Mediterranean Diet, the basis of which is formed by the Israelite diet, is something many people talk about. Although I had a chance to write articles and present papers on the Israelite diet, this book covers the subject and answers many related questions in a very thorough way: What did the ancient Israelites eat, and how much? The author carefully sifts through all the relevant evidence—biblical, archaeological, anthropological, environmental—to uncover what the people of biblical times really ate and how healthy (or unhealthy) it was.
From Oded's list on life in biblical times.
