SAD NEWS: According to Wikipedia and Jacob L. Wright on Facebook, Prof. Rolf Rendtorff passed away yesterday. I do not yet have any further information. His important work on Pentateuchal studies is well known. There is more about him in a post by Deane Galbraith at the Dunedin School blog celebrating his birthday in 2010. Requiescat in pace.
As I was about to press "publish," Dan McClellan posted the following on Facebook: Heidelberg: Rolf Rendtorff ist tot.
