/u/Snapshot52 wrote a 'Monday Methods' post about the pitfalls of historical objectivity. /u/commiespaceinvader wrote a different 'Monday Methods' about empathy as a tool of historical practice that may also be of interest.
All that said, I would check out the Israel section of the AskHistorians booklist.
