Centre for the Study of Judaism and Christianity in Antiquity (CJCA)

Description

The primary aim of the Centre for the Study of Judaism and Christianity in Antiquity (CJCA) is to foster cutting-edge research on ancient Judaism and Christianity in the UK and internationally.

Most directly, it will be a vehicle for continuing to raise the profile of Biblical Studies at St Mary’s University by functioning as a hub for conferences, publications, grants, postgraduate students, and colleagues on research leave.

As a Catholic institution that stands in the Christian tradition, St Mary’s aims to be at the forefront of scholarship on the Jewish and Christian Scriptures, and the socio-historical contexts that gave rise to them. CJCA is an initial important step in attaining that goal.

CJCA was previously known as the Centre for the Social Scientific Study of the Bible (CSSSB).
