J. Brian Peckham (1934–2008) was a professor of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations at Regis College in the Toronto School of Theology and the Centre for the Study of Religion at the University of Toronto.[1] In 1993, Peckham published "History and Prophecy: The Development of Late Judean Literary Traditions," which argues that the Bible was created from the beginning as a work of literature, and that biblical text was meant to be read and performed.[2]
