New page

The '''Society of Biblical Literature''', founded 1880,[1] is a constituent society of the [[American Council of Learned Societies]] (since 1929),[2] with the stated mission to "Foster [[Bible|Biblical]] Scholarship". Membership is open to the public, including over 8,500 individuals from over 80 countries.[3]

The SBL was not the first association dedicated to biblical studies in North America, but it was the first that was interdenominational.[4] The thirty-two founding members of SBL in 1880 even included a [[Unitarianism|Unitarian]], Ezra Abbott.[5] The society's development was contemporary with increasing interest in [[Ancient Near East]] studies.[6] The SBL later developed specialist sections, such as the Textual and Linguistic Section.[7]

In 2011 the society was awarded a $300,000 grant from the [[National Endowment for the Humanities]] to produce Bible Odyssey, "an interactive website that would bring nonsectarian biblical scholarship to the general public."[8]

The SBL Handbook of Style was developed for its own use but is also adopted by some schools for students of religion.[9] The SBL Handbook of style includes a recommended standard format for abbreviation of Primary Sources in Ancient Near Eastern, biblical, and early Christian Studies.[10] The Handbook and the Student Supplement are downloadable, and also contain recommendations for [[transliteration]] standards.[11]

The Society of Biblical Literature published the ''[[Journal of Biblical Literature]]''.
