Hi Folks

My name is Hefin Jones - some of the folk who've been on this list for years might remember me from my time on the list back in the early-mid naughties. I'm a Welshman currently resident in Sydney, Australia. A graduate of the University of London (Computing & Cognition), and of Moore Theological College, Sydney, I've been engaged in ministry for quite a while, and since 2003 have been in full-time Baptist ministry at a couple of different churches. I'm also a part-time research Masters student (M.Th. = U.S. Th.M.) interested in Galatians, justification/rectification, and 'apocalyptic' interpreters of Paul. Not only is a smattering of greek a dangerous thing, so is a smattering of linguistics. I have a smattering of both and so am likely to say silly things. Some of them are right. I'm hoping that re-connecting with bgreek won't turn into another mode of procrastination, but rather be a stimulus to me to think harder about koine, the NT and especially Galatians.

Good to see that you're still about! Not only that, but you're a "global moderator"

Apocalyptic Galatians. Sounds like you, like myself, have been bowled over by Martyn and de Boer. Unused these quite heavily in my undergraduate dissertation where I tried to bring Marks apocalyptic narrative into some kind of conversation with Pauline apocalyptic eschatology.
