To Translate or Not To Translate?

I’m thinking of translating some passages from Greek into English on the blog. I’ll probably be focusing on New Testament passages, but also some Apostolic Fathers and LXX (once I get the LXX) passages. I may even make it a weekly post and have a tab for it. What do you think? Should I do [...]

Focusing

This month has been a little crazy when it comes to reading. So far I have read in four different books, but because of one thing or another I have jumped into another one. So, here is what I’m going to do. Today I am going to focus on reading (and hopefully finishing) the most [...]

What is the Demand for Fanning?

Over at ΕΝ ΕΦΕΣΩ, Mike has started a poll in which he asks how many would like to see a paperback version of Buist Fanning’s Verbal Aspect in New Testament Greek. Right now, Oxford University Press does not have much concern with bringing out a paperback version because of lack of sales in the hardcover. Mike [...]

Just In

I was busy last night with other things, so this comes one day late. Yesterday when I got the mail, there was a package from Southeastern Seminary’s Dave Black. He mentioned in a comment earlier this week that he was going to send me something to help with German, so naturally I was excited. Inside [...]

The Ending of Mark

I’m reading Perspectives on the Ending of Mark right now. It discusses four views (two in favor of the long ending and two in favor of the short ending) for grasping how Mark should end. I won’t go into their views today. Instead I’ll save that for the book review (hopefully early next week; it’s [...]

Interview with Richard Bauckham

Today I have the honor of presenting you with an interview with Dr. Richard Bauckham. He was a professor at the University of St. Andrews until 2007, when he retired to do further research. Some of his titles include Jesus and the Eyewitnesses, The Testimony of the Beloved Disciple, 2 Peter and Jude (Word Biblical [...]

She Chose Me

Here’s a great video for everyone to enjoy. Anyone out there have similar stories to this guy? Let’s hear them. MSE

Support the Habit

I just wanted to let everyone know that there is a new feature on Broadcast Depth. Over on the left side of the screen, above my latest tweet, you will find a button. Yes, the one that looks like this: Well, go ahead. You can click it. Don’t worry. Feel free to support a lowly [...]

One Gospel To Rule Them All?

Before I begin, I would like to say that I believe that all four Gospels are important and would not dream of spending all of my time in one alone (and I trust nobody who reads this would either). Ok, with that said, here are some hypothetical questions for you all to discuss: Which one Gospel [...]

Learning Another Language

So, I’ve got how to learn biblical Greek and Hebrew. I’m no expert (although I’d like to be one day), but I can muddle my way through with some of the best of seminarians (thanks to awesome profs at Criswell – Dr. Metts for Greek and Dr. Brooks for Hebrew). However, I’m wondering what to [...]
