Very helpful in seeing the Bible according to it's appropriate genres and understanding the rules associated with each. ( ) Ryken’s literary approach to scripture reminds the contemporary Bible reader that not only is the Bible divinely inspired, but it also reflects the forms and devises of literature. In our attempt to set the Bible apart, we have done it a great disservice by forgetting its literary heritage. Ryken walks the reader through a number of genres and subgenres of the Bible, pointing out principles of interpretation particular to each: e.g. analyzing plot, character development, and use of satire.
