Abstract

The period in which the initial formation of the deuteronomic identity of Israel and Judah takes place is situated in the context of the construction of the power zone of the NeoAssyrian empire. Assyrian imperial expansion included the occupation of the northern Levant, the dissolution of the Kingdom of Israel, and the relationship with the Kingdom of Judah in the form of a client kingdom. The Assyrians used various ways to express their power and established an exchange that took place in the economic, social, and cultural fields. Among the expressions of power were the use of texts and art in the construction of the central cities undertaken by some of the major NeoAssyrian kings, but also other instruments of prestige and favor to those appointed by the central kingdom to administer the conquered territories that became provinces. It is necessary to evaluate the impact of the Neoassyrian imperial agenda on the relationship with the conquered territories and the satellites in the Southern Levant, but, above all, to seek to understand the forms of resistance and how the changes that occurred in this period may be one of the elements of the formation of part of the Israelite identity present in the texts of the Book of Deuteronomy.
