I’ve had the pleasure to be second reader of a Master’s thesis in Ancient Near Eastern Philology and History entitled “An Old Testament Christology? Edition and Translation of an Anonymous Ethiopic Homily (BnF Abb 29 f° 1v-6r, BnF Éth 116 f° 7r-14v),” defended today by Mr Sergey Kim, student at the ELCOA, department of Christian Orient.

Olivier Artus, Director of the School of Ancient Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations at the Catholic University of Paris, has invited me again to teach Old Testament Textual Criticism.

This course, which I already taught last year, aims at comparing ancient witnesses of the Hebrew Bible — mainly Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, Syriac and Latin. A true journey back to the sources of the biblical text! Join us next Thursday, October 1, 2009 at 13:00 for our first session.

This year, I will be teaching Old Testament Textual Criticism at the Catholic University of Paris, Faculty of Theology and Religious Sciences, School of Ancient Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations.
