Biblical Studies Tools: Finding Journal Articles

Old Testament Abstracts provides summaries and bibliographical information of articles and books written in all major languages. It is the major English-language index to journal articles and books on Old Testament topics. Both the article and book abstracts are organized by themes, such as the Ancient Near East, literary forms, and biblical theology. Old Testament Abstracts is published by The Catholic Biblical Association of America.

Now in its seventh decade, NTA, a publication of the School of Theology and Ministry at Boston College, has become the definitive source on current literature devoted to research of the New Testament and the times in which it was formed, and an invaluable resource around the world. Every year NTA abstracts approximately 1,500 articles chosen from more than 500 periodicals in numerous languages. Hundreds of books are also summarized annually.

Indexes journal articles, book reviews, and essays; includes Atla's full-text collection of major religion and theology journals. Also includes content previously available in the Catholic Periodical and Literature Index. This database is produced by Atla, formerly the American Theological Library Association.
