Default Looking for an audio Introduction to the Old Testament

I was skulking around here a couple weeks ago and found that someone had placed many links, including a great New Testament introduction. (Ehrman)

Here's the link that was provided:

http://www.teach12.com/tgc/courses/c....aspx?cid=6537

I'm hoping to find a good Old Testament introduction in an audio form. Yes, I do read. But audio would better serve my purposes.

Actually, any audio links that discuss or study any part of the Bible in a way that provides historical context would be really appreciated. Audiobooks are also lovely, but I'm having trouble finding titles and authors I want.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi Little Sister,

One of my favorite introductions to the Old Testament
is Hector Avalos: How Archaeology Killed Biblical History (Parts 1 of 2).

Best wishes,


Pete
