Find introductions, indices, and other notes on central extra-biblical texts from the ancient Near East (where the Israelites came out of), the Second-Temple period (when the Hebrew Bible was completed and Christianity first developed), and early Christianity.
Find my translations of key apostolic writings, commentaries on various books of the Bible (continually updated), and other essays and writings on canonical Christian texts.
I am always updating my bibliography with all the scholars, books, podcasts, and primary sources that I've read on the Scriptures and other Second-Temple Jewish texts. The included texts so far consist of: The Scriptures, the Septuagint, apocrypha, pseudepigrapha, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Philo of Alexandria, and Flavius Josephus.
While I enjoy primary sources first, the past decades have been anything but void of good perspectives on biblical theology and rich, new insights into deep, disputed theological concepts. Above, you can find the books I own (the majority of which I have read cover-to-cover; reference books not included) and recommend to varying degrees and for different reasons (books lower on each list are less relevant to theology).
