The Bible as a Novel
A clean, continuous story free of repetitions and genealogies, with cultural and historical background based on the author's own travels and scholarship. The result is vast, imaginative, stimulating and fresh work. It bubbles with creativity but above all is immensely readable and well organised, and it may be an acceptable and more enticing alternative for those who always mean to get around to reading all of the original.
The sweep of the narrative allows us to see the big picture of God's providence in a way that we rarely do in our fragmented reading of Scripture.
