There were few good excuses for any scholar in the EU to miss ISBL this year (the annual international conference of the Society of Biblical Literature), simply because the conference was held in Rome. What better location for a conference on biblical studies than the geographical center of historical Christianity? Furthermore, the event itself was held at one of the key training centers for Roman Catholic clergy and teachers in this iconic city, the Pontificial Gregorian University, a beautiful location in the heart of Rome’s main attractions.

Today (Monday), tomorrow, and Wednesday are the last days remaining in which you can submit a proposal to the International Meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature, or ISBL.

This Summer, ISBL will be holding its meeting in none other than R-O-M-E.

That’s right. Rome, Italy. The seat of historic Christianity (except for those few years in Avignon, France). The epicenter of faith for centuries of believers. And the best travel experience you could offer your spouse for a summer holiday in 2019.

Get your proposals in now, and I hope to see you in Italy this coming July.

This year’s joint meeting of the International Society of Biblical Literature (ISBL) and the European Association of Biblical Studies (EABS) was held in Helsinki during the last few days of July and into August. Strange to say, the weather was almost unbearably hot. This is Finland, mind you, not Spain. Finland is the country of reindeers and Father Christmas. The hottest thing in Finland is usually their famous saunas. The airport signs even capitalized on the heat wave (hence the title of this article). [Read more…]
