IOSOT main paper by Prof Yuval Gadot (Tel Aviv University) on Jerusalem excavations here in Berlin #IOSOT2025

Yesterday’s wonderful main paper #IOSOT2025 by Prof Frédérique Rey on computational approaches to textual criticism using the example of Ben Sira manuscripts. The livestream room was a little cooler! @humboldtuni.bsky.social

My #IOSOT2025 book haul is clearly dominated by Georgian children’s books.

Prof Katharina Psychny here delivering a main paper at IOSOT Berlin! #IOSOT2025 @humboldtuni.bsky.social

#IOQS presenters - just had Carmen Palmer (Stetson University, Florida) on slaves and now Andrea Ravasco (Palermo) on 4QSamuel textual criticism. #IOSOT2025 more people arriving today, so many friends and heroes!

Kando’s knife slicing up 1QS!!! No IOQS or Dead Sea Scrolls conference is complete without a wee scandal revelation, and Prof Torleif Elgvin delivered. #IOSOT2025 @humboldtuni.bsky.social Thank you, Torleif and Israel Antiquities Authority

Someone at #IOSOT2025 brought their 2013 Munich bag, still in good shape 12 years later. They just don’t make conference bags like they used to.

#IOSOT2025 business meeting: #IOSOT2028 will be at Pontifical Biblical Institute part of the Pontifical Gregorian University 10-14 July 2028, under the presidency of Peter Dubrovský. And he just added that in the buildings they have air-conditioning.

I got my copy of Speaking to Job in Greek signed by the author! @maxavenariolus.bsky.social @dgb-relbibtheo.bsky.social #IOSOT2025

#IOQS business meeting in Berlin at #IOSOT2025 - very full room!
