Hungarian Scholarship (2000s)

Overview

With the establishing of Shime'on Centre for the Study of Hellenistic and Roman Judaism and Christianity (Reformed Theological Academ, Pápa) and the inauguration of the International Conference on the Deuterocanonical Books at the same institution (from 2009, it takes place at Sapientia College of Theology, Budapest), the study of early Judaism became a main aspect of the Hungarian scholarly public.

The Protestant publishing house Kálvin kiadó published the first scholarly translation of OT Apocrypha in 2004, a couple of new journals and monograph series were established, and the Hungarian Society of Hebraists (2002-), learned society was formed to promote the study of biblical and extra-biblical Judaism.

At the end of the decade, Ida Fröhlich and her team published of the first Hungarian translation of the Enochic writings, commented translations of some works of Philo, and several titles from the OT Pseudepigrapha and NT Apocrypha have also been issued. Géza G. Xeravits has published up to date introductions to the Dead Sea Scrolls and to OT Apocrypha; while János Bolyki has written to volumes for a newly inaugurated biblical commentary series, on the Johannine writings.
