Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
This talk explores the Antioch Bible’s Syriac-English edition of the Peshitta New Testament. As the first complete, scholarly translation of the Peshitta into contemporary English, the Antioch Bible bridges historical Syriac tradition with modern linguistic precision. This presentation will discuss the translation’s methodological approach, its balance between literal fidelity and accessible English, and its role in advancing Syriac studies. Special attention will be given to how the Antioch Bible engages with textual variants, historical context, and its contribution to both academic scholarship and ecclesiastical communities.
