The Right Reverend NT Wrong has compiled their own list of biblioblogs, which is divided into categories based on content (HB, NT, etc.) and position on the conservative-liberal scale. Apparently our site is “fairly conservative.” You can find Bishop Wrong’s list here. Be sure to view the photograph of a typical biblioblogger as well!

In a little over a week the next Biblioblogger of the Month Interview will appear. We think you’ll find it very enjoyable indeed. So check back November 1.

I’d like to introduce a series of great blogs that belong on one or more of the canonical bibliblog lists. Great Blog #1:

Abnormal Interests’ Duane Smith is a mostly retired professional marketing manager. Long ago, he received an MTh from Claremont School of Theology and an MA in Comparative Near Eastern Studies from the Claremont Graduate University. He also has a BSEE from USC. Many of Duane’s posts reflect an effort to resurrect linguistic skills that atrophied during his professional life.
While Duane is an amateur in all his abnormal interests, that doesn’t keep him from posting on Ugaritic, Akkadian and Hebrew texts and philology. A number of his posts focus on ancient scribal training and the question of literacy in antiquity. But don’t be surprised to see posts on archaeology, evolution, paleoanthropology and religion as well as current events. When in doubt, as he often is, Duane turns to one of his other interests, Mark Twain, for guidance.

Chances are if you’re looking for a link that was once listed in the sidebar that’s no longer there, it’s been removed because it has been silent for over a month. Our goal is to keep listed those sites which are active. And active means posting with at least monthly regularity. Dead links and 404 errors and that sort of thing are just the kinds of things we are trying to avoid, since we don’t want to send you to dead sites any more than we would sell you expired milk if we were a grocery store.

John Hobbins’s interview with Alan Lenzi has now been posted. You won’t want to pass this over without reading, especially if you are interested in the role of theology within the field biblical studies–a topic that has been recurring frequently in the last few years. John asks excellent and penetrating questions and Alan’s responses are definitely worth reading. Thank you both!
