Paul Anderson (Christian studies) has been appointed to the New American Bible – Revised Edition translation committee, working on translating the five writings of John. This is the most widely read translation in America, and it will replace the New Testament revision published in 1986. Paul also published nine essays on The Saint John’s Bible on The Huffington Post during Pope Francis’ visit to America in September, and one of the pieces – on the need for forgiveness on 9/11 and every day – was published on Krista Tippett’s On Being website. His essay, “On ‘Seamless Robes’ and ‘Leftover Fragments’ – A Theory of Johannine Composition,” was published in Structure, Composition, and Authorship of John’s Gospel, and his review of Quakering Theology by David Johns was published in the October issue of Quaker Religious Thought.
