Difficult Texts in the Old Testament: A Workshop Approach


Difficult Texts in the Old Testament: A Workshop Approach
Date TBA
Location TBA

Each year this group will examine a difficult passage in the Old Testament from multiple angles. In 2023, we will examine Psalm 82. The session will be divided into two parts with Part I addressing interpretive problems and ANE background, and Part II addressing intertextuality, along with theology and ethics. Each part will begin with two brief (5-min) presentations to get the conversation started, but the bulk of the time will consist of a more collaborative and audience-driven discussion. All presentations will be invited. Questions may be directed to Brittany Kim ([email protected]), Charlie Trimm ([email protected]), or Traci Birge ([email protected]).
