Description
Summary:The collection of essays in this volume of Old Testament Essays is presented to prof. Herrie van Rooy on the occasion of his 65th birthday and subsequent retirement from the Faculty of Theology of the Northwest University, Potchefstroom Campus. Reading through these essays and the tributes paid to him one realises the integrity of his research as well as his integrity as a person. Herrie gave important research direction in his own research of the prophets, Psalms corpus and the Syriac Psalms. And when one differed from him, in the words of Gerald West, his ideas served as a contrapuntal soundboard for different views that is brought into dialogue with one another.
