BLOG WATCH: A few interesting recent blog posts. A new annual on the Cairo Geniza texts, Ginzei Qedem, began last year. Shai Heijmans has details and a translation of the table of contents over at the Hebrew and Aramaic Philology blog. Happy first birthday (yesterday) to the Evangelical Textual Criticism blog. Stephen C. Carlson writes on Christianity in the Magical Papyri at Hypotyposeis. I have come to similar conclusions in my book The Provenance of the Pseudepigrapha. David Nishimura notes at Cronaca that Bruce Ferrini's house is being sold to pay his bankruptcy debts.

CORRECTION: It is Stephen's guest blogger Andrew Criddle who wrote the Hypotyposeis post on magic. Sorry Andrew.
