This book is designed to help individuals read the Bible literarily. Instead of reading the Bible as one big book, it is important to study the Bible according to the literary style that is found in each particular book, chapter or passage.
The Bible is
the epic story of God revealed through various and different genres and literary
styles. Chapters in the book illustrate literary styles including the law, Old
Testament narratives, poetry, wisdom, prophecy, Gospels, epistles, and
apocalyptic. At the end of each chapter there are questions to help transform
the study of the particular genre presented in the chapter,
This is a
very helpful book for anyone interested in studying the Bible. It would be
appropriate for those who are new to studying the Bible as well as those who
have studied the Bible for some time. There are valuable insights to be gained
whatever your experience.
I received
this book from Moody Publishers in exchange for this honest review.
