The cultural context of the Old Testament highlights for the reader the various cultural trends and traditions that go into the making of the books of the Old Testament. From the ancient Sumero-Akkadian myths to Wisdom literatures of Egypt and Mesopotamia to the law codes of the Sumerians, Babylonians and the Hittites, the authors of the Old Testament are continuously influenced and enriched by non-Israelite cultures and traditions. The challenges of adaptation and inculturation existing in our society today were equally daunting and familiar to those writers in their days.
