The Cambridge History of Ancient Christianity– Part Three

Last updated on: October 19, 2023 at 12:11 pm By Ben Witherington

Q. How long was this project in gestation? Having done this sort of editing for Cambridge commentaries I know that the more essays involved, the harder it becomes to get all the essay writers to meet the deadlines. A. We started moving forward with real intent in the Spring of 2017 — when we reached out to a number of scholars, giving them the vision for the volume and proposing that they join the project by writing a specific...

The Cambridge History of Ancient Christianity– Part Two

Last updated on: October 19, 2023 at 12:09 pm By Ben Witherington

What follows in this and the next few blog posts is a dialogue with Bruce Longenecker about this important volume– Q. What actually prompted the production of this volume, which I assume had to go through the usual process of approval by the Cambridge Syndics—right? A. In March 2016, Beatrice Rehl (Publishing Director in the Humanities and Social Sciences at Cambridge University Press) approached me to see if I would be interested in putting a volume of this kind...

Last updated on: October 19, 2023 at 12:06 pm By Ben Witherington

Cambridge University Press has a remarkable record of not only being the very first press in the English speaking world, but of publishing literally hundreds of volumes of high scholarship in many different fields for hundreds of years, and this wonderful volume edited by my old friend Bruce Longenecker, and his colleague David Wilhite is just such a volume as well. We have some 725 pages of careful research and writing by some 27+ scholars producing 27 chapters, which does... Read more

30 Years On– The Boston Marathon: That’s What Friends Are Like

Last updated on: October 17, 2023 at 8:06 am By Ben Witherington

Long ago, I chronicled the spiritual experience I had in running the Boston marathon on this very blog. It really was about learning the limits of myself, and the need to rely on the Lord in life. During the last several miles I was repeating the phrase ‘are you running with me Jesus’, and he was. He got me to the spot you see above in April 1993 where I fell into the arms of my besty, as they say... Read more

Taylor’S Swift’s The Eras Tour—the Movie

Last updated on: October 14, 2023 at 4:18 pm By Ben Witherington

First of all, 17 years doesn’t even make a single era, never mind plural eras but I can overlook that. Secondly, $13.50 to see the film certainly beats the ridiculous $1,350 cost of actual tickets for this tour, but wait that’s not the best tickets. On StubHub for tickets in row four, which came as pairs, it cost $92,000 and change EACH last May. This is way over the top, greed run riot, but in this case, this is not... Read more
