A City Set on a Hill: Essays in Honor of James F. Strange

A City Set on a Hill: Essays in Honor of James F. Strange

Daniel A. Warner
0/5 ( ratings)

For more than four decades, James F. Strange has been one of the leading figures in biblical archaeology, beginning with his collaboration with Eric and Carol Meyers in their excavations in Upper Galilee in the 1970s and early '80s, and continuing especially in his role as the Director of the University of South Florida's excavations at Sepphoris, a position he held for twenty-seven years. During that time, he not only advanced our understanding of civilization in the Galilee within the formative years of Christianity and rabbinic Judaism, but he also trained a new generation of scholars in the rigorous methodologies of archaeological field work--methodologies that he helped pioneer. In this volume, nearly two dozen of his colleagues, former students, and other fellow scholars honor Prof. Strange with a series of essays on biblical archaeology and its related, interdisciplinary fields, often building upon his own considerable scholarly contributions. Collectively, they offer the reader the latest insights and discoveries in field excavations, ancient textual studies, and social scientific analyses, forming a fitting tribute to Prof. Strange's own outstanding life and legacy.
