The Centre for the Study of Biblical Research is using today’s technology to bring people back to the past. This is accomplished by disclosing the latest material discussed by scholars living in Jerusalem, Israel. These researchers meet regularly to read and discuss the Synoptic Gospels. They speak only Hebrew and read the Gospels in Greek. Attention to details of the syntax and idioms of the Second Temple Period are examined. The four pillars of CSBR are the Second Temple Period, Language, Culture, and Jesus (Yeshua).
Dr. E. William Bean was the Founder of the Centre for the Study of Biblical Research (CSBR) in Glendora, California. His wife, Trisha, is the President of CSBR & Affiliates.
