New Testament philology and the earliest Christian literature, with computational methods
About
I am a ThM candidate in Biblical Studies, New Testament, at Princeton Theological Seminary. My research focuses on the linguistic and intertextual development of the earliest Christian writings (the Jesus tradition in the Gospels, the letters of Paul, and the Apostolic Fathers) working closely from the Greek alongside Hebrew and Latin. To this research I bring computational and corpus-philological methods, best represented by Ancient Library, a morphologically tagged multilingual corpus with robust search capabilities. I am also the author of the Terebinth Translation, a syntactically transparent English translation of the Greek New Testament. My previous training in physics at Duke grounds my work in rigorous quantitative method.
Research & Projects
-
A multilingual digital corpus of ancient sacred and cognate texts in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin, encoded with full morphological tagging and lemmatization and served through lemma-based concordance search, cross-reference linking, and aligned original-and-translation parallel editions.
-
Terebinth Translation of the New Testament
An original, syntactically transparent English translation of the New Testament that mirrors the word order, clause structure, and grammatical relationships of the underlying Greek, intended as a study resource for scholars and advanced students working directly with the Greek text.
