The membership of this blog is made up of evangelicals involved in academic study of textual criticism. Those with appropriate expertise and theological convictions who wish to be considered for membership should contact Peter Head or Tommy Wasserman. Those applying for membership must indicate that they have read either the OT or the NT in its original language(s), should be actively involved in text-critical research, and should be already contributing to the blog through comments. They should give e-mail details of an academic and a pastoral referee, a summary of their academic and/or ministry involvement, a statement of their doctrinal commitment (which may be by reference to various classic evangelical statements of faith, e.g. 39 Articles, Westminster Confession), and an indication of their area of interest within textual criticism. Non-members who wish to comment are not expected to be evangelical, but they are requested to respect the blog's ethos.

I am now off to Stockholm. I will get up 4.30 AM and travel about 20 hours before I arrive in San Diego. I guess I will be a bit slow on Saturday when the meeting opens. But on Monday when I present (after the ETC lunch) I will hopefully be fit for fight. Here in Sweden there is ice and snow. Over there I guess the climate is rather different.
My paper will focus on the difficult verses in Jude 22-23. Yes, the material is from my dissertation. I thought it was good to present it once on a conference. The next two conferences in next year I have very different topics.
My journey is similar to Tommy's. I will be presenting at the same session, on the Codex Boreelianus (F 09). Be prepared for some nice images! No ice and snow as yet here in Amsterdam, but cold it is for sure.
I am looking forward to presenting in the same session as you two! And it is pretty frosty in Cambridge right now as well.
I will be attending the National Missionary Convention this coming weekend, in Cincinnati, instead. But if it is not too much trouble, could someone announce the following to SBL-meeting participants with an interest in the Gospel of Mark:
"The Origin of Mark 16:9-20," by James Snapp, Jr., is available on request on CD. The CD also includes some supplemental articles. This is a very detailed examination and analysis of external and internal evidence relevant to the last 12 verses of Mark. The author contends that Mk. 16:9-20 was present in the Gospel of Mark when the book was first disseminated for church-use, having been added by Mark's colleagues at Rome in the late 60's following Mark's sudden departure. The e-mail address to write to for a copy is
office@curtisvillechristian.org
Yours in Christ,

You are all welcome. The weather is fine here, a tad on the warm side. Bring swimming gear if you plan to stay after and body surf.
(Weather is nicer than Athens last week, but I don't know if San Diego will match the warm waters of Tel Aviv the week before.)
Body surfing! YEAH.
I am about to leave.
It is now delightfully warm here in San Diego and my body is unsure of the time. I'm not yet sure how many of us are going to do live reporting from the conference, but if I do get time to do so, I will try to avoid further references to the weather and focus on TC.
