On Animal Farm, the horse Boxer believes everything he is told, and works hard day and night. This pure naivety paves the way for evil people to rule our world. Naivety is not infallible. Gullibility must be accompanied by intelligence, knowledge, caution and foresight. This is wisdom. To be wise, you must know evil and see it clearly, and you must also be naive enough to believe in your ability to resist it. Through his collection of stories, Uday Al-Zoubi seeks to raise a question about the limits of wisdom, and its relationship with naivety. Foolish, unwise naivety, and evil, unnaive wisdom, almost dominate our world, spreading confusion and darkness and making the world a dangerous, ambiguous mixture of things, ideas, and stories.
It is rare today that we do not find in explanations and comments on the book of the Old Testament multiple references to archaeological sites, such as Qumran near the Dead Sea and Ugarit on the Syrian coast near the city of Latakia. The Qumran site has become a well-known name to some extent, while the site of Ugarit, which is no less important, did not enjoy the fame that Qumran enjoyed, even though its discovery contributed greatly to re-translating and interpreting many of the words and passages of the Old Testament. This is what prompted me to write this small book that examines the civilization of the ancient city of Ugarit and its legacy. Ugarit was one of many cities that filled the world of the Bible, but its importance lies in the wealth of literary texts that added a lot to our information about the world of the Bible, to a degree that exceeded what any other archaeological site in the eastern Mediterranean provided, and helped fill the gaps between the world. The ancient and modern world.
