"A Sage in New Haven" pays tribute to Professor Robert R. Wilson, Yale University’s Hoober Professor emeritus of Religious Studies and Professor emeritus of Old Testament. The festschrift is composed of two sections. Each section represents a biblical corpus or area of study in which Bob Wilson has made significant contributions. Part I addresses subjects related to the Prophets and Part II to the Writings, the ancient Near East, and their scholarship. Altogether 32 essays are devoted among other topics to "Males and Sexual Assault in Isaiah 56:1–8", "Genre Multiplicity in Micah 6:1–8", "The Human Body in Judges", "Og in Biblical Historiography and Postbiblical Contexts", "Millenarianism in Ancient Judaism", "Yale and the Bible: 1886–1925", "Aging in Ancient Israelite and Jewish Instructions", "Mechanisms of Persuasion in the Sefire Inscriptions", "Rituals for Keeping Infants Safe and Quiet in the Ancient Near East", ... to list just a few.
