[PAST EVENT] "Where Are David and Solomon Buried?" Salasky Lecture
Access & Features
- Open to the public
This Milton and Shirley Salasky Lecture is "Where Are David and Solomon Buried?" and will be presented by Professor James H. Charlesworth.
James Charlesworth is George L. Collord Professor of New Testament Language & Literature Emeritus at Princeton Theological Seminary. He has specialized (and is renowned for his work) in Jewish literature of the Second Temple Period, particularly as it bears on the New Testament and Christian Origins. And, alongside myriad articles, monographs and edited volumes, he is perhaps most noted for editing two key editions of early Jewish corpora: his two volume Old Testament Pseudepigrapha (1983-85) has been a key factor in catalyzing the post-Holocaust phase of Biblical Studies; and his (still ongoing) series the Princeton Theological Seminary Dead Sea Scrolls Project (Mohr Siebeck, 1985—) is hailed widely for refining the first editions of Dead Sea Scrolls documents into critical editions with precise English translations.
