@JonHatter @isaacsoon2 @zafulotus Yes, the first ad for it (and the backlash to it) was the impetus for the paper!

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

Got this good news last week. See you in San Diego

@nathancjohnson8 And here I am, the fool who specialized in the Mewtwo Testament

@NTECProf I think @earhustlesq talked about this. If I'm remembering right, the issue wasn't violence generally but sexual violence specifically (at least in CA).

@bonar_lumb14699 It'll be available on ProQuest after a bit, but if you'd like a PDF, message me your email address and I'll send it along.

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

This went well. I'm a doctor now! Feeling grateful.

Hi everyone! In two weeks (Dec 14 at 10:30 CST), I'll be defending my dissertation on the subject of purity in the Pseudo-Clementine Homilies. It is the product of almost four years of study and runs the gamut, covering blood, sin, demons, education, baptism, and ...

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

@kam_labithtum I did embargo it, mainly because the version I submitted for format check didn't end up being the final version. The final version will be available on ProQuest after a little time, but if you don't have access to that I can also send it to you.

@ekaputrat Thank you!

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

debates surrounding Gentile legal requirements among ancient Jews and Christians. I'm really proud of the way it turned out and excited to share it with the world! If you're interested in attending the defense (on Zoom) or reading the dissertation itself, feel free to DM me.

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

@JoshuaSchachte2 You're welcome! It's a question I hope to tackle myself at some point

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

@JoshuaSchachte2 I haven't seen anything that makes the argument directly, but I have seen a few other suggestions. A few recommendations: F. Stanley Jones' article on Marcionism in PsCl, Giovanni Bazzana's "Paul Among his Enemies," and Karin Zetterholm's "Jewish Teachings for Gentiles"

@ChanceBonar If you're an ice cream enjoyer, go to the West End Creamery down the street. It's excellent. (Or maybe that's just my nostalgia)

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

@ChanceBonar Ah you went to the Chasm! One of my favorite places growing up

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

@amber_m_dillon Having a similar experience over here with my last few chapters. Congrats!

@NickQuient New Revised Mario Bros. U

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

I just sent off a draft of the final chapter of my dissertation to my director! I still need to write the introduction, conclusion, and begin work on the Grand Revision, but it feels really good to have hit this milestone.

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

How do y'all feel about sharing unpublished work? Recently got a request to do so and I'm curious if there's anything I should think about or caveats I should give before doing so.

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

I don't love how this chapter turned out, but this is the least I've hated it since I started, and that's good enough for now.

[Dr. Joshua King @jkingdy3]

@SkinDawg1973 I feel like I'm the opposite. Perhaps we should work together
