Online Critical Pseudepigrapha News

Scholars of early Judaism and early Christianity need better access to the texts of the Pseudepigrapha in their original (or extant) languages and with a critical apparatus. In many cases critical editions are prohibitively expensive or out of print, and scholars without access to a large library have been hard pressed to find them. The OCP is intended to address this problem by publishing on-line, free-access critical texts of the Pseudepigrapha which are up-to-date and academically rigorous.

The OCP is now underway

September 2004

Thanks to a generous research grant from King's University College, the OCP is now underway. Much of the summer was spent in preparation of the user interface and tagging scheme. Craig A. Evans has provided digital base-texts for several documents, which are being converted to Unicode and tagged in XML format by David Miller and Ken Penner. The project directors have begun work on a full edition of the Testament of Job.
