The Yale Bible Study Series is presented in cooperation with The Congregational Church of New Canaan in New Canaan, CT. The series features brief commentaries on various books of the Bible by Yale Divinity School Dean Harold W. Attridge and Professor Emeritus David L. Bartlett. The presentations are intended for use in small-group Bible study sessions to promote discussion and reflection. The Series aims to engage educated lay audiences by offering the insights of biblical scholarship in a relaxed, informal, yet rigorous manner.
