scot,
there is an old video available from the bible society,by the lead singer of manfredd mann called "from the memory banks" it is excellent (although dated, it a funny white shoes and funny hair kind of way) It is far and away the best we've ever seen on the topic. Love Tim and Kitty

I don't believe the Bible Society video is still available. Another similar video is "How the Bible Came to Be" from Gospel Communications. It is a 4-hour overview on two DVDs--OT & NT. Again a bit dated and may be hard to find.
Charlton Heston hosted a three-part series on Discovery (?) which is available as "Charlton Heston presents the Bible." Focus is more on the content and Bible history.

"The Indestructible Book" focuses on the transmission of the Bible, particularly in Protestant Europe. "God's Outlaw" is a good video on William Tyndale

The talks by Bock, Wallace, and Witherington (10-29-2007) are excellent:

Scot,

We can make you a copy of that old bible society video, if it would be useful. It's been brilliant for us. Let us know.

Kitty and Tim
