For the past half-century, David Noel Freedman has had an enormous
impact on the study of the Bible, both as an author and as an
editor of the writings of others. As his colleagues note in their
comments at the beginning of this volume, “You are
quintessentially the man of the book. And perhaps what impresses us
most is that your bibliography of hundreds of books is not limited
to the extraordinary number of important books that you’ve
written yourself. It also contains the books that you’ve edited
for others. And we know what it means to have David Noel Freedman
as one’s editor. For every page of manuscript that the author
sends you, you send back almost an equal number of pages of advice,
criticism, corrections, and improvements. You can make a bad book
good, and a good book better. And you can make its author a better
scholar and a better writer.” In this volume, his compatriots at
the University of California, San Diego, contribute eight varied
essays in celebration of his impact on them and in honor of his
varied contributions to biblical studies.
