We are very sad to hear of the recent death of Prof. Keith Elliott. Many BNTS members will remember him as Professor of New Testament at the University of Leeds since 1997, (emeritus since 2008), editor of Novum Testamentum, author and editor of numerous scholarly publications including the Apocryphal New Testament (2005), and enthusiastic advocate of widening access in biblical studies through WEA and VTBS.
Loveday Alexander shares her memory of him visiting the John Rylands Library in Manchester and wowing a group of graduate students with the excitement of hands-on NT textual criticism.
His funeral will take place on 25th June (please email secretary@bnts.org.uk if you would like details). He will be sorely missed.
