Canaanite Religion According to the Liturgical Texts of Ugarit, 2nd English Revised Edition, by Gregorio del Olmo Lete
The Ugarit liturgical texts have received a good amount of attention since their discovery, often because of their significance for the Old Testament. Ugaritic liturgical texts contain word and deed, incantations and sacrifices. The Old Testament does as well, but they are more often separated, as we see cultic instructions in Leviticus 1-7 and praises and song in the psalms, for example. The importance of these texts makes Olmo Lete’s book significant for Ugaritic and OT scholars alike. His work was originally published with CDL Press in 1999 and reprinted in paperback by Eisenbrauns in 2004….
Toward a Canon-Conscious Reading of the Bible: Exploring the History and Hermeneutics of the Canon, by Ched Spellman
