If you want to rightly understand the bible, you must begin by recognising what it is: a composite of literary styles. It is meant to be read, not just interpreted. The Bible's truths are embedded like jewels in in the rich strata of of story and poetry, metaphor and proverb, parable and letter, satire and symbolism.
