Ed Curtis, an Old Testament scholar who has done extensive research in Genesis, Job and the Song of Solomon, is author of Transformed Thinking (JKO Publishers); Song of Songs, the Zondervan Bible Study Commentary; and Discovering the Way of Wisdom (Kregel, Fall 2004). He contributes to such journals as Criswell Theological Review; Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society; Faculty Dialogue; Bibliotheca Sacra; and Christian Scholar's Review, and has presented articles before the national meeting of the Evangelical Theological Society and the Regional Institute for Biblical Research. Curtis was the recipient of a National Endowment for the Humanities fellowship to participate in a seminar on the Bible and Cuneiform Literature at Yale University.

Dr. Ed Curtis taught Old Testament and Hebrew at Biola and Talbot for 40 years and also team-taught a Rosemead class called Psychology and Christian Thought with various Rosemead profs for 15 years or so. He graduated from Baylor with a physics degree and worked as a physicist/engineer for  8 years before going to Seminary and Grad school (University of Pennsylvania). He went to Baylor on a track scholarship and was a high jumper for my 4 years there. Dr. Curtis met my wife in Mexico and Central America on a missions trip and we have been married for 56 years and have 2 sons and 2 grandkids. Fun fact: Dr. Curtis grew up in a small town in Texas which is where he learned to talk.
