Tell es Sakan was an important ancient Egyptian maritime settlement during the early Bronze Age, situated at the mouth of wadi Ghazzeh. Its geographical situation endowed it with a position of importance at the crossroads on the land based trade routes to Arabia, the Egyptian empire to the south and the Canaan region to the north. The site dated between 3500 2350 BCE appears to be the predecessor to the Tell al Ajjul settlement, where geomorphological dynamics of the estuary caused settlement trans location or abandonment. The site dates from a period prior to the Egyptian military domination of the Levant. The pottery finds at Tell es Sakan along with Tell al Ajjul shows a strong ancient Egyptian link to the area, while the Bronze Age settlement at Taur Ikhbeineh has revealed a more localised pottery production with Egyptian Canaanite interaction.

The Me assefim were a group of Hebrew language Hebrew writers who between 1784 and 1811 published their works in the periodical Ha Me assef , which they had founded. In 1782 Moses Mendelssohn s German translation of the Pentateuch had appeared. In the bi ur or commentary which he added to this translation, he dwelt on the beauty of the Hebrew language, its wealth of imagery, and its adaptability for poetic expression. By his comments on scripture, also, he largely stimulated Hebrew, grammatical, and exegesis exegetic studies. The seeds he thus scattered bore fruit even in his lifetime. While reading and discussing Mendelssohn s scriptural expositions, Isaac Abraham Euchel and Mendel Bresslau , who were at that time tutoring in the house of David Friedl nder at K nigsberg , conceived the idea of causing Hebrew as a literary language to be used more widely among the Jews. Assured of the material support of Simon Friedl nder Simon and Samuel Friedl nder , they issued in the spring of 1783 an appeal to all Jews to assist in establishing a society for the study of Hebrew Chebrat Doreshe Leshon Eber . The periodical Ha Me assef was projected as a rallying point for all those who were interested in and able to contribute to the work. The undertaking met with a cordial reception in many quarters, especially in Berlin . Mendelssohn and even the aged Naphtali Herz Wessely promised their support and contributed to Ha Me assef , the former anonymously. The first number of the periodical was announced April 13, 1783, in a prospectus, Besor Nachal ha Besor , signed by Euchel, Bresslau, and Samuel and Simon Friedl nder. The first volume appeared in 1784, being the earliest successful periodical published in Hebrew. The first three volumes were issued in monthly numbers at K nigsberg the frontispiece to vol. iii being Naphtali Herz Wessely s portrait vols. iv vi appeared in quarterly numbers at K nigsberg and Berlin vol. vii one number only at Breslau vol. viii at Berlin the first ... more details
