Resumo: The purpose of this article is to show the lack of archaeological evidence that proves the power of religion in Israel and Judah. This lack is attested through local analysis (in situ), with bibliographical assistance, of the main archaeological sites of these two kingdoms: Megiddo, Hazor, Gezer, Dan, Samaria, Bethel, Silo, Jerusalem, Lachish, and Arad. The conclusion is that in all these sites, the power of religion, with temples and great altars, was very strong until the end of the Late Bronze Age. In the transition from Bronze to Iron I, particularly to Iron II, when these cities become Israelite, evidence of the religion’s power disappear. They only reappear in Judah at the end of the seventh century BCE.

Essa falta e atestada através da análise local (in situ), com auxílio bibliográfico, dos principais sítios arqueológicos desses dois reinos: Megiddo, Hazor, Gezer, Da, Samaria, Betel, Silo, Jerusalem, Laquis e Arad. A conclusão e de que em todos esses sítios o poder da religião, com templos e grandes altares, era muito forte até o final do Bronze Tardio. Na transição do Bronze para o Ferro I, e particularmente para o Ferro II, quando essas cidades se tornam israelitas, as evidências do poder da religião desaparecem. Só voltam a aparecer, em Judá, no final do século VII AEC.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2021-12-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/rever/article/view/5670910.23925/1677-1222.2021vol21i3a7REVER: Journal for the Study of Religion; Vol. 21 No. 3 (2021): Religião e Arqueologia; 103-122REVER: Revista de Estudos da Religião; v. 21 n. 3 (2021): Religião e Arqueologia; 103-1221677-1222reponame:Rever (São Paulo.
