Writing Styles of the Bible & Why They're Important to Understand

Episode 3 shows how reading the Bible wisely requires that we learn about the ancient literary styles used by the biblical authors. These writers expressed their ideas and claims through a variety of different types of literature, and this video will explore why it's important to tell them apart so we can hear their message on their terms.

When are you guys going to make a movie? Your artwork and style is so cool. Would be great to see a movie of the Bible through your animated styles. Would sure love to see the creation of the world in Genesis all the way to your artistic interpretation of Revelation. Please think about it.

I love how the different styles of animation and artwork correspond with the different literary styles 😊

60 years old and thanks to your videos I see the bible in a whole new light, as if I'm learning and reading it for the first time. Keep up the Lords work this is awesome.

I LOVE the animation styles! Really smart choices to boot! The narrative literary style is portrayed with comics because they are narratively inclined, sequence sensitive. The poetry is animated to look like an impressionistic kind of painting, reflecting the more creative, elevated, and emotionally language of the Psalms, Wisdom poetry and the prophets. The discourse literary style is portrayed using abstract/geometric patterns and shapes because abstract art often has a logical pattern. :D WONDERFUL work!

Wow, you guys are on-point. I know a fair amount about the Bible, thanks to my family and church, but you guys are blowing my mind. You have explained how to read it and the literary styles in a way I have never even considered. The way each book is outlined and constructed gives you even more to think about. I’m so impressed by how you have taken reading the Bible to a whole new level. You guys are doing a wonderful job! 👍
