Overview

The place Schilo comes across in texts of different stripes within the Old Testament. With today's Khirbet Sailūn the location is also of archaeological interest. The present study takes up both the archaeological and exegetical perspectives on Schilo and correlates them with one another. In the course of the text analysis, Ann-Kathrin Knittel works out the development and enrichment of the picture within the Old Testament and the connective function of the sanctuary for the construction of the history of Israel. It can show that the Jewish tradition, according to which Schilo was the most important predecessor of Jerusalem, was not only initiated by the design of the individual texts, but that Schilo's literary success story gradually builds up precisely this picture.
