Leve Center’s commitment to the study of the Ancient Jewish world is borne of its decades-long collaborative relationship with the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Cultures (NELC). Indeed, long before the founding of the Alan D. Leve Center in 1994, NELC was the progenitor of the Jewish Studies program, its founding Chair, Prof. Wolf Leslau – a Holocaust survivor and scholar of Semitic languages – the first UCLA professor to offer courses in the field. NELC continues to administer UCLA’s <a href="https://nelc.ucla.edu/jewish/">Jewish Studies Major/Minor program</a> and offers courses in Hebrew language and literature, Rabbinics, Hebrew Bible, 2<sup>nd</sup> Temple Judaism, and Biblical Archaeology.</p> <p> </p> <p>For over a decade, the Alan D. Leve Center and NELC have partnered on two annual seminar series focused on the formation and interpretation of the Bible in the Ancient World, particularly in ancient Israel and early Judaism. The “Bible and the Ancient World Series” seminars have been some of our most popular and well-attended events and featured notable speakers including:</p> </div> </div> </div></div></div></div> </div> <div class="u_row"> <div class="vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid"><div class="wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6"><div class="vc_column-inner"><div class="wpb_wrapper"> <div class="wpb_text_column wpb_content_element " > <div class="wpb_wrapper"> <p><a class="waffle-rich-text-link" href="https://youtu.be/tVykInqWweY">Jordan D.
