Reading the Bible as Literature Collection (6 vols.)

In the Reading the Bible as Literature series, Leland Ryken explores the intersection of the Bible and literature. In the series preface he writes, “It is my belief that a literary approach to the Bible is the common reader’s friend, in contrast to the more specialized types of scholarship on the Bible.” Ryken shows pastors and students and teachers of the Bible how to appreciate the craftsmanship and beauty of Scripture. And he goes one step further than merely explaining the literary approach to the Bible—he includes exercises to help students of the Bible master it.
