Due to the success of the “Bible Facing Archaeology” conference in Orleans, a new conference is in order. The large hall will welcome both those who could not come in the first time, and those who want to continue the adventure!
Sunday, February 5, 2012 at 6 PM
at Joan of Arc Church (Bd Riobé, Orleans)
I will speak about the most important archaeological discovery of the 20th century: Qumran. What do these mysterious scrolls contain? Who wrote them? Why weren’t they immediately available to the public? What do they reveal on the birth of the Bible and Christianity?
A good amount of time will be left for questions in the audience.

After a year-long gestation, the new series I submitted to Éditions du Cerf is ready to be born!
Sous la plume de biblistes, philologues, épigraphistes et historiens des religions, cette collection nous invite à un voyage au Proche-Orient antique, à cette époque énigmatique et fascinante où le scribe est aussi rédacteur, où le texte est encore fluide, et le canon, indéterminé.
Siècles après siècles, les traditions du judaïsme ancien et du christianisme naissant sont partagées et enrichies. Leurs textes évoluent au gré du temps, transmis en d’anciennes langues sur des manuscrits évanescents. Leur autorité varie selon les communautés : certaines les qualifieront de bibliques, d’autres, d’apocryphes.
Ils s’offrent à nous aujourd’hui : voici « L’écriture de la Bible ».
Stay tuned for the announcement of the first volume… 
L’écriture de la Bible (PDF)
Update: The first volume is out!
