New Open Access Journal: Journal for Interdisciplinary Biblical Studies (JIBS)

Journal for Interdisciplinary Biblical Studies (JIBS)
ISSN: 2633-0695

 JIBS is a peer-reviewed, open access journal dedicated to publishing cutting edge articles that embody interdisciplinary, social justice-oriented, feminist, queer, and innovative biblical scholarship. We welcome submissions that challenge canonical and/or disciplinary norms and boundaries or that query the field of biblical studies’ relationship to the broader investigation of human religion, culture, and literature. JIBS will publish two issues a year in summer and in winter.
