What the journal publishes

The journal considers research articles, historical studies, theological essays, review essays and other scholarly contributions that make a clear, original and well-supported contribution within its scope. Work that is primarily promotional, devotional or polemical without adequate scholarly method may be declined at initial assessment.

Editorial process

  • Research submissions receive editorial assessment and may undergo anonymous external peer review by one or more suitably qualified reviewers, depending on subject matter and reviewer availability.
  • Authors submit an anonymised manuscript and separate author details.
  • Revisions retain the original article number and may return to the same reviewers.
  • There is no submission fee, article-processing charge or publication fee.
  • Authors retain copyright; published articles use the CC BY 4.0 licence.
