Beholding the Iconic Bible

Chapter 15: Beholding the Iconic Bible

What little the Bible says about itself makes it clear that the word of God does things in the world. As we read, we need to pay attention to genre, style, intent, and not just extract verses that match our biases.

A Strange Narrative Beauty. The story in Bible turns upside down the standard narrative of today. WE need to read the Bible understanding that story.

The Return of the Great Bible. A proposal to reinvigorate the making of “great Bibles.”

Conclusion. Saving the Bible includes saving the beauty of the Bible.
