Tyndale House is an international centre for research that specialises in the languages, history and cultural context of the Bible. They bring together outstanding Christian researchers from around the world with the aim of promoting Bible understanding in the Church and beyond. Tyndale House has one of the world’s most advanced libraries for biblical scholarship. Through their in-house academic programmes they research the history, language and context of the Bible.
The emphasis is on a Christian research focus, but one of their current research projects is the ‘Old Testament Project’ which may be of interest to scholars of the Hebrew Bible. The Tyndale House Onomastics Project is currently cataloguing personal names from Alalakh, an Amorite capital in the Old Babylonian period. This project will produce an extensive database of biblical names and survey available data from a wide range of ancient Near Eastern corpora. They hope also to co-ordinate with other projects engaging in onomastics and prosopography, to enable multiple projects to ask broader research questions whose answers can only be found by comparing corpora from multiple places and time periods in the ancient world.
There is a Jewish Studies library
