"Hebrews among Other 'Words of Encouragement': Reconsidering the Meaning and Function of λόγος τῆς παράκλησεως in Heb 13:22."
"(Religious) Language and the Decentering Process: McNamara De Sublimitate on the Ecstatic Effect of Language." Submitted to the Journal for Cognitive Historiography. "Who am I to be Blessed? Mary as Blessed Mother in Protevangelium of James." Pages 67–102 in Jesus and Mary Reimagined in Early Christianity, edited by Vernon K. Robbins and Jonathan Potter. SBL Writings in the Graeco-Roman World Supplements Series. Atlanta: Society of Biblical Literature, 2015.
Abstract: The author of Protevangelium of James reconfigures the version of Mary's visit to Elizabeth in the Gospel of Luke. The paper exhibits this reconfiguration through analysis and interpretation focused on the topoi of praise and blessing in the larger narrative context of both compositions. "Utterly Incapacitated: The Neglected Meaning of ΠΑΡΕΣΙΣ in Romans 3:25," Novum Testamentum 55 (2013): 349–366.
Abstract: This article considers the appropriate translation of πάρεσις in Romans 3:25, which is the only attestation of the word in the Greek Bible. The author argues that “incapacitation” should be considered as an appropriate translation based on the use of the term in other authors of the Hellenistic period, especially the medical writer Aretaeus of Cappadocia. |
