If you could meet (and talk to) any Bible scholar, who would it be?

euripides

I'd like to get a sense of the scholars any of you out there appreciate most and who's hot right now (in the academic fields!)... I always liked Burton Mack myself. Well, who would you love to meet?

I want to meet the linguists on this board. Leoalia, Narkissos.

Some here have met William Barclay.
Alas, I was not one of them.
euripides

ok jgnat I'll toot my own horn and say that I should be included with Leolaia and Narkissos, I too have a Hebrew, Greek and Latin pedigree, so, may I say, I'd be happy to me you! I can hold my own with the linguists if I have to!

They have to be cunning though.
euripides

I'm sure this board is full of master debaters and cunning linguists...

edited to add

I don't know of any fallacious Joe's on the board though...
