Biblical and Oriental Essays in Memory of William L. Moran (Biblica Et Orientalia)

The essays in this volume are dedicated to the memory of William L. Moran (1921-2000). They are written by his friends and former colleagues at the two institutions where he spent a good part of his life and career: the Pontifical Biblical Institute, Rome (1958-1966) and the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations, Harvard University (1966–1990). The contributions reflect Bill’s wide-ranging interests in Assyriology, Biblical Studies, and Semitic Philology.
