Christian Apocrypha at SBL 2024

THE APOCRYPHICITY BLOG: Christian Apocrypha at SBL 2024 (Tony Burke).
The 2024 Annual Meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature runs from November 23 to 26 in San Diego, California. I won’t be attending this year, but I can still post my usual roundup of sessions and individual presentations that focus on Christian Apocrypha. Take note of how many presenters this year are fellows of the Beyond Canon project at Universität Regensburg. Looks like I’ll be the only one left in the office!

It's an impressive list! The focus of the papers is Christian apocrypha, but that includes the reception of Judith, the mother of the Maccabean martyrs, and the the women in the Ezra apocrypha.
