Of the historic crises in the ancient
war of owners and owned.
The poor were ground down by
the state, by landlords and by
priests, while the rich grew richer
every year as trade increased be-
tween Phoenicia and the Red Sea.
TN this clash Of social forces the
i Temple played a tiInidly neutral
role or leaned to the side of royalty

development of moral ideas among

Yahveh was still a tribal god; the

no pretense that he was also the goo

with Jerusalem as their capital.
The division did not merely
weaken the Jews in the face Of the
voracious empires that surrounded
them, it brought to a sharper point
that conflict between the country

Anud history, which can be as

noble speech to decay, giving its
place to dialects cut off from all
