QUMRAN SYMPOSIUM: My doctoral student, Ian Werrett, draws my attention to a symposium of the Nordic Network in Qumran Studies which is being held in Jerusalem on 22-29 September. He and St. Andrews British Academy Research Fellow Grant Macaskill are presenting papers there.

CORRECTION: He's still listed on the website, but Grant tells me he had to withdraw from the conference. Apologies -- I should have double-checked with him before posting.
