Lindenberger, Pierre Bordreuil, Amir Harrak, Theodore Lutz, Josef Tropper, Dennis Pardee and Clemens Leonhard.
'So many essays of quality, sometimes very detailed, were submitted, that it proved necessary to divide the Festschrift...a...meaningful contribution to the exegetical and religious ideas of its time.' Martin McNamara, Heythrop Journal, Vol 46, No. 2 (April 2005)--Sanford Lakoff "Heythrop Journal "
