SSEC ANNUAL DAY CONFERENCE 2023

SCRIBES, SCHOLARS, SCRIPTS

A conference about ancient manuscripts and documents shedding light on early Christianity. How were these early Christian manuscripts and documents preserved, transmitted from generation to generation, and how were they used? Many were lost or hidden – how do we know about them today? Our Visiting Fellow, Professor Tommy Wasserman, an internationally respected scholar on the text of the New Testament, will be joining us (via zoom), along with a number of other scholars to explore these questions.
