Summary note
The primary focus of Nili Fox's study is an analysis of the titles and roles of civil officials and functionaries - including key ministers of the central government, regional administrators, and palace attendants - in Israel and Judah during the monarchic period. The nineteen titles she examines fall into three categories: status-related titles; function-related titles; and miscellaneous designations that could be held by a variety of functionaries. -- Book Jacket.
