Avis aux intéressés! J'aurais le plaisir d'enseigner un cours sur la Septante cet été. Cette traduction ancienne de l'Ancien Testament a joué un rôle important tant dans le monde juif que chez les premiers chrétiens. Le cours proposera un survol de ces questions et du canon de l'Ancien Testament.

The journal has finally arrived! And probably the largest volume so far. Some very interesting articles...I have a modest contribution in the book reviews section.

Proofs day!

Wonderful being back in beautiful Salzburg after 8 years, this time with two students, Stephann and Jean-Marc. Beautiful scenery, check! Guided tours, check! But most of all, learning to work with ancient biblical manuscripts under the guidance of Kristin De Troyer.

Looking forward to our next event coming up soon!

Honored to be able to take part in the teaching of this course. A great opportunity for students in a beautiful setting!

I recently gave a talk introducing the Septuagint to a general audience. If you're interested, you can check out the link to the talk here: youtu.be/Snvb7qNhNCM Thankful for the opportunity to interact with this group, both in-person and online.

In the footsteps of the late Jim Aitken...quite a challenge!

Got to spend some time this morning answering questions related to a review of my book (brill.com/display/titl...) for @rheaclassical.bsky.social. Quite stimulating to interact with the reviewer in this way and explore aspects and implications of my work that I had not considered.

Nice to see you here, @andrewtimkeenan.bsky.social and @hebraicaveritas.bsky.social.

Great time catching up with friends today in beautiful Cambridge. Looking forward to meeting other colleagues later this week. #SHG23
