The primary goal of the Hebrew Bible session is to foster study and interaction in the field, more specifically:
• To promote academic dialogue between scholars in the Pacific Northwest Region.
• To showcase and promote research in the Hebrew Bible.
• To advance the quality of research and writing in the area of Hebrew Bible by mentoring and recommending work for publication.
• To provide mentoring and opportunities for graduate students to present their work to the Hebrew Bible session, thus incorporating new scholars into the greater goals of the SBL.

This unit has met since the mid '70s, it accepts submissions from students (if they provide the full paper, rather than just title and abstract), and The Hebrew Bible Unit has hosted three research groups on the topic of Dress and the Hebrew Bible. Theyhave published two volumes with our work and are currently preparing for publication the third volume.
