This work adopts the direction of the Hebrew script as a metaphor
for the cultural transformation involved in every act of biblical
interpretation. It is a concern that has been evident in much of
the work of David Clines, to whom this volume was presented on his
65th birthday. Clines, who has been associated with the Department
of Biblical Studies in the University of Sheffield for the whole of
his scholarly career, and who was one of the founders and directors
of Sheffield Academic Press for 25 years. The volume includes
thirty-seven essays from established scholars around the world,
covering topics including the Pentateuch prophecy, wisdom, ancient
Israelite history, Greek tragedy and the ideology of biblical
scholarship.
