We have a new Social Media Officer! Elizabeth Crabtree is a Junior Research Fellow at Blackfriars. Her research interests lie in the Christian interpretation of the Bible in the Middle Ages, and especially in how recourse to Jewish sources shaped a Christian understanding of the Old Testament or Hebrew Bible. Her doctoral project explores the biblical exegesis of Nicholas of Lyra (d. 1349), interrogating the relationship between the ‘senses of scripture’ the Franciscan employed as a basis for his two commentaries on the book of Esther, alongside the role of Jewish sources in his interpretation. Elizabeth is excited to be the new Social Media Officer for OMS!
