    Dead Sea Scrolls with Kenneth Hanson review
    The content of this podcast is very good, and I appreciate the recitation of the scrolls in their original Hebrew (or is it Aramaic?). There are a few things that really distract from the content, though. First, the dramatic background music throughout makes it hard to hear or focus on the narration. Second, the Poirot detective voice is confusing and unnecessary. Finally, when the scrolls are read in their original language, a translation of what’s been said needs to be clearly provided. Without it, the listener is lost (unless they speak Hebrew/Aramaic). I like the podcast and would like to continue listening but these distractions take away from an otherwise very good podcast.
