Upcoming address to Catholic Biblical Association



On Jan, 29, I will address the Catholic Biblical Association at the annual regional meeting at the Dominican House, located in Washington, D.C. My presentation concerns one of my favorite topics, namely, The Gospel of John:

"The Dating of John: Challenging the Consensus"
While there has been wide agreement among many New Testament scholars in ascribing a late first-century date to The Gospel of John, such conclusions have often been built upon tenuous premises which do not necessitate such a late dating. In fact, recent biblical research and archaeological findings now support the possibility that the Gospel may have been composed decades earlier than the 90's. At the very least, it is time that the question be reopened in earnest.

This event is open to members of the Catholic Biblical Association. For details and to register click here.
