- Great for me
On my way to Bible study I grabbed my wife’s (catholic) Bible in error. It’s different! I wanted to know how the Bible was put together and also the historical contexts of the various New Testament scriptures. The professor explains things very well, provides historical backdrop, and is entertaining. There are other sources for a theological history. Thank you very much.

Great presentations by Dale Martin. Enjoyed every single lecture.
Apple Podcasts5Amir SalehzadehUnited States2 years ago - Irresponsible With Scripture
I will admit that I’ve only listed to episode 11, regarding the Johannine Literature. Dr. Martin is very irresponsible with the context and culture of the text, not considering the underlying ethos of the early church. It’s surreal this is a course taught at Yale.

Excellent course. I learned a ton and was entertained throughout the whole 28 episodes. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in the historical part of the New Testament and early Christianity/Christianities.

This was a good course which provided many new insights to me. However, the professor was frequently a snarky with his students about their lack of class participation.
