| George Eldon Ladd (1911-1982) |
George Eldon Ladd, one of the great and tragic figures in the history of New Testament scholarship, was best known for his career at Fuller Seminary (1950-1980) and his magnum opus,
A Theology of the New Testament. For an excellent analysis of his life and career, I encourage picking up the excellent volume,
A Place at the Table: George Eldon Ladd and the Rehabilitation of Evangelical Scholarship in America by John D'Elia.
I, along with many others I'm sure, have long wondered what Ladd may have sounded like when delivering a lecture. I am happy to say that the Boyce Digital Library has nine audio lectures dated to 1982, the year of Ladd's death. The lectures, focusing on the Kingdom of God and eschatology, were the hallmarks of Ladd's scholarship.

Matthew, it appears that lectures 3 and 4 link to the same audio file (the one for lecture 4). I sent a message to the contact person asking if this can be corrected.
