New Testament Lectures
I know that there are a number of people here interested in biblical Greek, or at least there used to be. I just discovered this series of lectures on New Testament History and Literature delivered at Yale by Dale Martin in the Spring of 2009. It seems like a good introduction to New Testament studies as far as I can tell.

Re: New Testament Lectures
Those look really interesting and comprehensive. Thanks for sharing this. Considering that the professor states that the course will be about the New Testament "not as scripture, or a piece of authoritative holy writing, but as a collection of historical documents," I think it should appeal to even those not interested in Biblical Greek.
(I'm glad nobody films my lectures...)
Edit: Wow, there are a LOT of really interesting looking lectures on a wide variety of subjects. Where to begin! If I weren't in school, I'd be watching these every day!

Re: New Testament Lectures
Tell me about it! I've been watching courses intensively on my breaks, but I can't get to them on a regular basis. For Classics, there is a good series on Greek History by Donald Kagan at Yale.
