Bible Dictionary
The Blue Cord Bible Dictionary has hit the ground running. Having sent out an e-mail earlier this week asking for contributors, I have been amazed at the response. So far we have ten contributors signed up, including one in the Netherlands and two in the Philippines.  A number of people who were not recipients of my original mailing have volunteered, which means the notice is getting passed around. This is exactly what I hoped would happen, but it is happening faster than I had hoped.
Entries are already being written, and I am learning some new things myself. One contributor has put up articles on intertextuality and the ideas of Mikhail Bakhtin, neither of which I knew anything about. I am enjoying getting to read articles on topics that I have not explored before.
If you would like to contribute to the Blue Cord Bible Dictionary, I encourage you to sign up. The more people we have working on this the quicker it will become a resource for students. If you want to volunteer, send me an e-mail with the password you would like, and I will add you to the list of contributors.

I look forward to using and contributing to the dictionary. Thanks for putting it online.
I have sent an email asking to be used as a contributor.
