New Dead Sea Scrolls Audio Course by Gary Rendsburg

Or at least it is new to me, as I’ve only recently seen it. I keep pretty up to date on their catalogue.  The Teaching Company has released an audio course on the Dead Sea Scrolls by Gary Rendsburg.  It’s currently on sale for $35 dollars for audio download (click “special sale” in the top left and then “religion”).

I’ve not listened to the course yet as I’m currently listening to the Old Testament and New Testament set by Amy Jill Levine and Bart Ehrman respectively.  But, I liked Rendsburg’s Teaching Company course on Genesis.

If you are into the Dead Sea Scrolls or want to learn more about them, I’ve also often recommended the course by Lawrence Schiffman in the Modern Scholar series available from Audible.

Gary Rendsburg – The Bible and History Free Mini-course

HERE is a link to a free mini-course entitled the Bible and History offered by Gary Rendsburg of Rutgers University.  I have not had time to review this course yet and do not know the format.  However, I have used some of Rendsburg’s material in the past and been impressed.  His course on Genesis from the Teaching Company is phenomenal.  I do not agree with him in every respect with regard to his views on dates and other matters, nonetheless his views are well thought out and provide a lot to think about even if you disagree with him.
