Biblioblogs

I’ve added a link to Eric Sowell’s blog of that title. In addition, I’ve tried to clean up some dead links. If I missed any, please do comment to that effect.

And stay tuned at the first of the month when the Biblioblog Interviewee for April is unveiled. Brandon’s working on the interview now. And it’s bound to be a good one!

I’ve added a new blog to the biblioblog roll- Ferrell Jenkins. Do check him out. And I’ve deleted a few that have withered on the vine and died. If I missed one please let me know.

The March featured Blogger is the inestimably Australian theologian Ben Myers. You can read the interview here. Brandon and I are grateful for Ben’s participation.

I’ve received so much email that I feel compelled to try again- to spite the spiteful I suppose. The new blog address is

jwest.wordpress.com

I’ve added a link to the blogroll: Bob Webb. Bob is the executive editor of the Journal for the Study of the Historical Jesus and a grad of the University of Sheffield. Do give Bob a read- he has some interesting things to say (or he wouldn’t be included here in the canonical list). ;-)

Kevin Edgecomb just wrote a nice little post on why he favors the term biblicablog over biblioblog to describe blogs related to biblical studies (some have also suggested biblicoblog). The term has been problematic from the beginning, but biblioblog is the term that became most popular among these types of blogs. Yet, as Kevin points out, more people use the term for book blogs or library blogs, which may cause confusion. Is it time for a change? You can read Kevin’s post here.

I’ve added a link to Tim Ricchuiti’s blog, which you may, or may not be familiar with. He disagrees with me nearly 95% of the time so of course he’s a lot of fun. He’s pretty sharp too.

It being well into the second week of the first month of the new year it’s time for some housecleaning. Blogs that have died or been silent for well over a month have been removed (as it is quite unfair to direct people to resources that are no longer living) and other incidental issues have been dealt with. So, links should be live and content should be fresh (and original, in the sense of un-plagiarized or attributed to their proper source). Enjoy.

We’d like to bring in the new year with a new blogger of the month for January, 2008. This month, Jim West interviewed Christian Brady, aka the Targuman. Read the interview here. Thanks Chris for your participation!
