I just realized that I have not mentioned this on the blog. But recently I wrote an introduction and translation for a neat piece of Christian (aka New Testament) Apocrypha known as John and the Robber. It is a great little apocryphal story of the apostle John, post-Patmos, in Ephesus and his encounter with the bishop of Smyrna and a robber.

This will be published in Tony Burke and Brent Landau’s forthcoming New Testament Apocrypha: More Noncanonical Scriptures (Volume 1), to be published in November 2016 by Eerdmans. So keep an eye out for it, the volume looks to be awesome.

Note: I mention this because a volume 2 is in the works, and I’ve recently been working on a submission. More later.
