Brent Nongbri

Brent Nongbri is Professor of History of Religions at the Norwegian School of Theology, Religion and Society (MF) in Oslo, specializing in early Christian manuscripts and papyrology. His peer-reviewed analysis in the Journal of Theological Studies demonstrated that neither Codex Sinaiticus nor Vaticanus has been radiocarbon dated, and that paleographic evidence permits a wider date range than traditionally assumed.
