The One Who Reads May Run - Essays in Honour of Edgar W. Conrad

The purpose of this volume is to honor the work of Edgar Conrad. The essays focus on various aspects of Conrad''s work, especially the prophetic literature, the Bible as literature, canonical issues, and engaged readings. In developing these lines of scholarship, the authors pay tribute to Conrad and seek to take his work further. The contributions from Korean scholars are especially noteworthy, since Conrad has had significant influence on Korean biblical scholarship through students who studied under him at the University of Queensland.>
