Conspectus is a refereed theological e-journal published biannually by the South African Theological Seminary (www.satsonline.org). The journal is a scholarly theological publication in the fields of Biblical Studies, Systematic Theology, and Practical Theology. The ISSN number is ISSN 1996-8167.

The purpose of Conspectus is to provide a forum for scholarly, Bible-based theological research and debate. It seeks to publish well-researched but reader-friendly essays and reviews on theological topics.

Conspectus aims to combine sound scholarship with a practical and readable approach. To be published in Conspectus, an article does not necessarily have to make a groundbreaking original contribution to theology, but it must present the results of sound theological research into a biblical, theological, or practical problem in a way that would be valuable to scholars, pastors, students, missionaries, or other Christian workers.
