Recent Blog Posts on Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha
Just wanted to alert you to a couple of interesting blog posts that I recently read on the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha. Tony Burke at Apocryphicity shared the following regarding why he chose to study the Christian Apocrypha: Why am I such an advocate for the Christian Apocrypha? Have I been “burned…by orthodox Christianity” as Ben [...]

The Book of Daniel
I have not put up anything in the past few weeks from the Sunday School lessons, partially because locally we’ve had Stake Conference, then I was at SBL, and then the we were snowed in last Sunday — so I’m not really sure where everyone’s at in the curriculum. I imagine that most people have [...]

SBL Annual Meeting 2010: Biblical Studies Conference in the Buckle of the Bible Belt

Professor Jim Davila on Christology: Son of God and Son of Man
The title of this post may be somewhat misleading, as what I am posting here is actually Professor Davila’s brief response to Mark D. Roberts’ recent blog posts on Christology at Beliefnet.com. However, although not extensive in length, his comments are insightful and I thought they’d be interesting to post here. Following Davila’s comments, I [...]

“Beside Me There is No Saviour”: Old Testament Lesson 38
Isaiah 40-49 Sorry for the dearth of posts recently — the semester at St Andrews has now started up and I have found myself overwhelmed trying to set a new schedule and routine for myself. Among the various things I’m doing this semester, I am very excited about sitting in on Jim Davila’s Book of [...]
