Biblical Humanities

I will be one of the speakers in this session. This time, with Hebrew ...

@CodyKingham @etcbc_vu This is especially sweet given the earlier history of closing off access to the Dead Sea Scrolls ....

Exciting news: Anyone can now download the free, open source Dead Sea Scrolls library in Text-Fabric thanks to the @etcbc_vu. Or process the plain-text TF files and use them however you want. When #openscience comes to Biblical Studies, we all benefit! etcbc.nl/computational-…

A nice job opportunity! HT @mpedson
