Trans Biblical

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Trans Biblical gathers a remarkable collection of reflections, provocations, and interventions in biblical, religious, and gender, feminist, queer, and sexuality studies that together invite new ways of thinking and speaking about bodies, Scriptures, transformations, and historical as well as interpretive significance. Ambitious in theoretical and historical scope, the volume moves from the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament to rabbinic and early Christian literatures, addressing pedagogy, epistemology, (in)visibility, and corporeal change. Accessible, decisive, and nuanced, this book provides readers with urgently required words and concepts as together we face ‘the biblical’ in all its horror and potential.”

Words Are Not Enough

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“In Words Are Not Enough, Garrick Allen brings the thrilling results of manuscript studies to a broad audience of students and scholars. As he shows, the New Testament is a material object that human communities continuously make and remake. With clarity and grace, he teaches readers what attending to manuscripts and their paratexts can offer while also showing, step by step, how to go about this work. This book performs a valuable service that will benefit anyone interested in the New Testament, early Christian history, and the history of the book. Highly recommended.”
