- Scope and Contents
-
The papers comprise the professional and personal correspondence, teaching files, writings, and public talks that document Holladay's career as a scholar of the Old Testament, his teaching career at both the Near East School of Theology and the Andover Newton Theological School, and his work as a minister for the United Church of Christ. The papers include Holladay's study of ancient languages, including Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek, as well as his interest in archaeology. Of particular note are the collected materials that provide a snapshot of the concerns of the American academic community living in the Middle East during the 1960s and the tensions between Israel and Palestine.
