R.I.P. Alan F. Segal

I’ve just learned via Larry Hurtado’s blog that Alan F. Segal has recently died.  I wish I was able to say that I’m more familiar with his work than I am, but my exposure to Segal’s scholarship comes from reading various essays he has contributed to edited volumes as well as portions of his groundbreaking Two Powers in Heaven: Early Rabbinic Reports About Christianity and Gnosticism on Google Books.  My prayers are with his family and friends.  May his memory be for a blessing.
