This is great for folks interested the academic study of the Bible, & ancient Judaism & Christianity. I recommend it to my community college students, & will assign it in future Bible classes. They present the data in clear, fun ways.

Simply the best biblical podcast out there. Believers and non-believers alike will enjoy learning from this biblical scholar how the Bible came to be. I particularly enjoy the word etymologies and the cultural time and place context that give the stories meaning.

Fantastic podcast! If you're interested in the scholarly study of the Christian bible - whether you're religious or not - then this will prove a fascinating, entertaining, and most of all, informative listen.

Description

This ain't your pastor's Bible podcast. This is a deep interrogation of the book, and we're bringing receipts. Bible scholar Dr. Dan McClellan and atheist podcaster Dan Beecher team up to discover what the Bible actually says, what it decidedly doesn't say (even if everyone thinks it does), and explore the history of the most popular book of all time.
