The conference sounds great.
ReplyDeleteDr. Head, will any of these papers be posted at the Tyndale House website? I am very interested in reading your observations on the dating of papyri.
Thank you
My understanding is that the other two papers are destined for publication. Mine may be postable to a website I guess (I doubt it will be publishable in the form it will have on Wednesday). Also it is more of a prolegomena than an actual connected argument.
ReplyDeleteOkay, thank you. I see that you posted a bibliography, thank you. Judging by your works cited, I think I can see where you are going with your discussion.
ReplyDeleteVery cool.
