Bound for Exile is the companion volume to Cogan's bestselling work, The Raging Torrent. It presents a selection of cuneiform texts from Assyria, Babylonia and ancient Israel which detail the lives of Israelites and Judeans living under Mesopotamian rule and in exile, throughout the 8th - 6th centuries BCE. This edition serves to fill in the missing details of the exiled Hebrews' lives; this subject area is left virtually untouched in the Hebrew bible. It also includes copies of wall reliefs from Assyrian palaces, which act as "snapshots" of daily life under imperial rule. It is a truly fascinating read that perfectly compliments The Raging Torrent.
