Sheffield Phoenix Press Ltd. (SPP) is an independent academic publisher specializing in biblical studies. It was launched in January 2004, continuing the traditions of the former Sheffield Academic Press.

SPP's main series of titles are Hebrew Bible Monographs, New Testament Monographs and Bible in the Modern World. Its staff are its Directors, Professor David J. A. Clines and Dr Jeremy M.S. Clines, together with its Manager Louise A. Clines.

Since its inception, SPP has published about 330 titles, including monographs, collective volumes, Festschriften, and a few noteworthy dissertations each year. Its authors reflect its worldwide reputation, coming from all the nations of the United Kingdom, and from Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland and Sweden, as well as from Australia, Argentina, Canada, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, South Africa and the USA.

All SPP’s titles are peer-reviewed, and authors are promised that their work will be kept in print indefinitely.

Sheffield Phoenix Press exhibits its titles at the Annual and International Meetings of the Society of Biblical Literature, as well as at the meetings of the Society for Old Testament Study in the UK. Customers are encouraged to order directly from the publisher, who prints its books through Lightning Source in the UK, the USA and Australia.
