Welcome to the Bible as Literature. The following pages serve as an introduction to the Bible: students will be introduced to the forms and kinds of literature in the Bible, its history and chronology, contributing civilizations, themes and symbols, and its characters. While the text serves as an introduction, students are invited to study the Bible comprehensively and systematically; to this end, this text is a hypertext linking to additional sources to assist students with their Bible study. These links provide materials from a variety of perspectives and should be read critically. The purpose of these pages is to support study of the Bible as Literature by providing essential background information. In addition to text chapters, including a contents and links page, this web contains an embedded Bible web containing additional resources useful for Bible study. |
