Journal Descriptions

The Journal for the Study of the Old Testament (JSOT) is a leading peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to the scholarly investigation of the Old Testament or Hebrew Bible. Since its founding in 1976, it has become a principal forum for high-level research in biblical studies, addressing literary and interpretive issues as well as historical, theological, and contextual dimensions of ancient Hebrew scriptures. Published five times per year, JSOT brings together work by both emerging and established scholars that advances critical understanding of Old Testament texts and their interpretive traditions. The journal’s editorial scope includes diverse methodologies—from literary analysis and socio-historical criticism to theological reflection and interdisciplinary approaches drawing on anthropology, linguistics, and cultural studies. With rigorous double-blind peer review and global reach through SAGE Publications, JSOT is widely indexed and distributed in academic databases, making it a key resource for researchers, professors, and postgraduate students in biblical and religious studies. In addition to research articles, the journal includes reviews and special thematic content, often in association with the Society for Old Testament Study, further contributing to ongoing scholarly conversation in the field.
