Why Is Eliezer Shulman Influential?

According to Wikipedia, Eliezer Shulman was a biblical scholar and historian. He wrote in Hebrew. Shulman was born in the German-Jewish town Tarutino, Romania in 1923, son of a merchant of agricultural and building supplies. He studied at a Jewish school, joined Zionist youth movement Betar, and planned to immigrate to Palestine with the underground movement Aliyah Af Al Pi. However, in the summer of 1940, as the result of the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, the Soviet Union occupied and annexed Bessarabia from Romania. On June 13, 1941, the Shulman family was deported to Kazakhstan. There Eliezer worked as a laborer, a blacksmith, and, finally, a tractor driver. In 1946, he graduated from a college for railway technicians in Aktyubinsk , Kazakhstan, and was transferred to Stalinsk , Siberia to work on railroads construction. He worked as a construction supervisor, technician, engineer, and eventually became the chief engineer of the transportation division within a mining industry design institute.
