Mandaean Book of John and Third Enoch Colloquium in San Diego 2019 #AARSBL2019

The AAR and SBL Annual Meetings in November are still a long way off, but it has been delightful to see several things come together, and now for details to begin to emerge so that they can be shared. The AAR program book is now online and so you can search it and see what will be happening.

Details can be found on the Enoch Seminar and 4Enoch websites, and more details will be forthcoming. But for now, here’s what is already in place:

The Third Enoch Colloquium will be on the topic, “A Conversation between Adele Reinhartz and Gabriele Boccaccini on John the Jew.” It will be held during the Friday on which the annual AAR/SBL annual meeting in San Diego begins in November 2019. It will be chaired by Deborah Forger, and she is the person to contact if you are interested in being part of this.
