Biblical Tradition in Transmission: Essays in Honor of Michael A. Knibb Edited by Charlotte Hempel and Judith M. Lieu This collection comprises eighteen papers by friends, colleagues and students of Michael A. Knibb on the theme of the transmission of biblical traditions in a variety of contexts. The articles explore different aspects of the transmission of these traditions in the versions, the pseudoepigrapha, at Qumran, and in early Christian writings. The collection as a whole clearly demonstrates the way in which biblical traditions were shaped and re-shaped creatively in the biblical, early Jewish and Christian literature.
