James Barr Assessed: Evaluating His Legacy Over the Last Sixty Years

Stanley E. Porter

"James Barr is a widely recognized name in biblical studies, even if he is still best known for his The Semantics of Biblical Language. Barr's Semantics, although fi rst published in 1961, still generates animated discussion of its claims. However, over his lengthy career Barr published signifi cant scholarship on a wide variety of topics within Old Testament studies and beyond. This volume provides an assessment of Barr's contribution to biblical studies sixty years after the publication of his fi rst and still memorable volume on biblical semantics. As a result, this volume includes essays on major topics such as the Hebrew language, lexical semantics, lexicography, the Septuagint, and biblical theology"--
