Jennifer Eyl received her PhD in Early Christianity from Brown University in 2012. Her research investigates and recontextualizes the various divinatory practices of the apostle Paul, and situates him in the larger milieu of itinerant religious specialists of the early Roman Empire. She is currently revising her dissertation for book publication. In addition to this project, she works on translation theory and New Testament studies, gender and sexuality in antiquity, theory of religion, and beliefs/practices pertaining to life after death. She is on the Executive Committee of the North American Association for the Study of Religion (NAASR) (url link). Dr. Eyl is a Neubauer Faculty Fellow for the 2014-2015 academic year.
