Description
About Me
Welcome to my site! I am Chair of the Religion & Theology Department and Assistant Professor of Old Testament/Hebrew Bible at Taylor University College in Edmonton, Alberta. I have been at Taylor since 1997.
I have a passion for Scripture and its present day theological interpretation and application. One of my primary goals in teaching is to get students excited about the Old Testament through intensive personal study, and challenge them to reflect on the theological significance of the Old Testament for the community of faith. My teaching interests are quite broad and include historiography, Psalms, Genesis, wisdom literature, hermeneutics, film and popular culture, Septuagint, and Dead Sea Scrolls.
I have published An Answer Key for Biblical Hebrew (New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 1996), and have written a number of entries in the New International Dictionary for OT Theology and Exegesis, The New Eerdmans' Bible Dictionary, and The Dictionary of New Testament Background, as well as other essays and articles and many book and software reviews. My current research is focused on the ancient Hebrew and Greek versions of the book of Psalms and the Dead Sea Scrolls, as well as the Book of Chronicles and ancient historiography.
