For a month, the former Master of the Order of Preachers, Fr. Timothy Radcliffe, stayed in Jerusalem for a month. It was he who first encouraged the École Biblique to embark on the adventure of The Bible in its Traditions.

We were delighted to welcome Pierre Assouline of the Académie Goncourt to our office on 17 February. He was travelling to various places in Israel to talk about his latest novel, inspired by a famous poem by Kipling. It was an opportunity to present to him in detail (and perhaps too much: sorry, Pierre!) the progress of our hive!

To them and to all our other sponsors, our heartfelt thanks for their encouragement over the years…

CORPUS OF INSCRIPTIONS AND THE BIBLE IN ITS TRADITIONS
