Would there be any MP3s available of the lectures? I would love to listen to Dr. Heads lecture on the Letter Carriers!
ReplyDeleteyes, we are a bit too late to know it. if we could have a video recording for the whole day, it would be the best thing to me! : )
ReplyDeleteLatinising Greek names is a rather disturbing trend.

ReplyDeleteThere has not been a new topic posted here in almost a week...so I wanted to ask if anyone knows of an update on the supposed 7 new NT papyri to be supposedly published by Brill including the supposedly 1st century fragment of Mark?
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing how time flies, but we are getting just a few months away from the "in about a year" that Dan Wallace mentioned back in February.
