This is a Festschrift dedicated to J. Gordon McConville on the occasion of his 60th birthday. This Festschrift is published on the occasion of J. Gordon McConville's 60th birthday in recognition of the outstanding contribution that he has made to the field of Old Testament studies over the last 25 years. The collection incorporates 13 essays written by colleagues, friends and former research students along with an introduction and complete list of McConville's publications. The essays focus on Pentateuch, History, Prophets and Writings with each paper addressing key issues of interpretation of the biblical text. The breadth of subject matter that comes under discussion in this volume reflects the wide-ranging interests seen in McConville's own published works. Over the last 30 years this pioneering series has established an unrivaled reputation for cutting-edge international scholarship in Biblical Studies and has attracted leading authors and editors in the field. The series takes many original and creative approaches to its subjects, including innovative work from historical and theological perspectives, social-scientific and literary theory, and more recent developments in cultural studies and reception history
