Hebrew Bible / Old Testament at EHJ 2026

The Hebrew Bible remains a central text for historical, religious, and literary scholarship. EHJ 2026 brings together international scholars examining canonical questions, the Book of Chronicles, psalms, textual reception, and the theological and historical dimensions of biblical narrative. Our speakers explore how biblical traditions developed, were transmitted, and were later received across Jewish and Christian communities.
