JEREMIE PRIZES
Endowments, 1904, p. 408
1. The income of the Fund established by James Amiraux Jeremie in 1870 for the encouragement
of a critical study of the Septuagint Version of the Old Testament and such other Hellenistic literature
as may serve to illustrate the New Testament shall be used to provide two or more annual prizes,
which shall be called the Jeremie Prizes. Any member of the University may be a candidate for the
Prizes provided that at the time of the examination
(a) he or she has kept five terms,
(b) if a graduate, he or she is of not more than ten years’ standing from admission to a first degree,
whether of this or another university.
The value of each Prize shall be such sum not exceeding the available income of the Fund as may be
determined from time to time by the Faculty Board of Divinity with the approval of the Council.
2. One or more Prizes shall be offered for knowledge of the Septuagint Version of the Old Testament
and one or more Prizes for knowledge of the Apocryphal Books and Pseudepigrapha, the works of
Philo and Josephus, and other Hellenistic writings. A student to whom a Septuagint Prize has been
awarded shall not again be eligible as a candidate for a Septuagint Prize, nor shall a student to whom
a Hellenistic Prize has been awarded again be eligible as a candidate for a Hellenistic Prize.
3. The examination shall be held after the division and before the end of the Michaelmas Term, on
a day of which notice shall be given by the Board of Examinations. The day shall not be any of the
days on which an examination for another Divinity Prize or Scholarship is held.
