Timothy A Lee discusses his article from the Journal for the Study of the Pseudepigrapha, “Jude’s Use of A Kaige Edition of Enochic Scripture.” He talks about his academic journey from mathematics to biblical studies, ultimately focusing his research on the proposed Kaige revision of Greek translations of the Hebrew Bible. He emphasizes the importance of the Ethiopic texts in biblical studies and analyzes how Jude's use of Enoch reflects the author's linguistic background and the popularity of Enochic literature in the first century.
