The 2023 ETS program does not appear to list any sessions whose titles specify a connection to the Pastorals. Note the following possibilities, however:
The Evangelicals and Women session titled “Come Let us Reason Together: Women, Authority and Scripture”
David W. Hester, “Did Paul Accept the Apocryphon of Jannes and Jambres as Scripture?”
Julie Walsh, “Theological Motivations: Eph 5.33 Compared to Other NT Household Code Subsection Interpretations”
Kyeong Seo, “Anthropological Significance in the Emergence of the Concept ‘Conscience’ in the Pauline Epistles.”
.
The 2023 SBL Annual Meeting Program lists the following sessions which may be of interest to Pastorals researchers:
Isaiah Allen, Booth University College, “The Fictional Household of Titus 2:1–15”
Michael Bird, Ridley Melbourne, “Can We Place the Pastoral Epistles in the Chronological Space of the Second Century?”
Esther Cen, Seattle Pacific University, “A Chinese Interpretation of Youth Leadership and the Household Metaphor in 1 Timothy”
