Recenzje

'Just as the original became a standard work of reference, a must for all scholarly libraries, so too should this successor, as both then and now the contributors are all scholars of the front rank, and we are offered a fresh guide to the 'state of the art' in biblical study and the history of biblical reception in antiquity.'
