The venerable Corpus Scriptorum Ecclesiasticorum Latinorum series contains well over 100 volumes, housing most of the early Latin Church Fathers. I learned today that volumes published before 2010 are now OPEN SOURCE! csel.at/en/publikation…

I'm working on the so-called "unconditional" prayer promises in Jesus's farewell discourse today (in John). I made this chart this morning, trying to bring some clarity to them.

Today, Rina Talgam showed us a variety of mosaics from ancient synagogues, demonstrating their familiarity with rabbinic literature and Christian interpretation of biblical narratives in the same periods. Thank you, Professor Talgam, for generating such lively discussion.

William Wallace’s Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics was the gold standard for a long time. A friend asked of there better advanced syntax and grammars for Greek and Hebrew? What’s being used today?

Here's a free download of a fascinating new book, Josephus and Jesus, which argues that the famous Testimonium Flavianum in Josephus might be legitimate after all. Arguments for its authenticity include: - a debunking of the argument that the wording doesn't match Josephus's vocab - a re-examination of all the extant translations - an extensive look at Josephus's network that would expose him to the Christian story You can download the book for free here: academic.oup.com/book/60034?log… Read @johnpauldickson's excellent review here: thegospelcoalition.org/reviews/joseph…

Next week @HouChristianU, my Greek students will begin reading documentary letters of recommendation in preparation for reading Paul's letter to Philemon. We begin with P.Oslo. 2.55. Here’s some basic notes we will use after we transcribe and translate it for ourselves.

Another ancient letter of recommendation to read with students @HouChristianU. P.Mert. 2.62 has many stock phrases and, interestingly, seems to be written on behalf of an enslaved man. I document some of the reasons for this identification in the notes.

This curious object from #Tutankhamun’s tomb ⁦⁦@EgyptMuseumGem⁩ is a footrest with a cover of tiny threaded faience beads! Can you spot the two foreign captives on which the king’s feet rested? It symbolised his domination over enemies Remarkable work #archaeology

What can contemporary media fandoms tell us about ancient Christianity? Tom de Bruin demonstrates how fandom and fan fiction are both analogous and incongruous with Christian derivative works. Learn more: bit.ly/3M93GjQ

My article in TMA on lingering in lament. 'There is no hurry to move from lament to praise when we pray.' Some psalms begin with praise and end in lament. Some laments end with a vow of future praise, a statement of confidence, or a cry for help. share.google/zzOfX3VgC8hK4t…
