Story and Typology

Brother Andrew Perry wrote a new book about the narrative stories we have in the Bible.

He looks on how they are written, what their symmetries and patterns are.
How is the 'plot' advanced? How are names and descriptions used? How do Bible writers draw characters? How does typology work? These and other literary questions are asked using stories from the Old and New Testaments. For example, stories about Abraham and Jacob, the parables of Jesus and the typology of Genesis are examined.

 The book will introduce readers to the artistic craft that can be seen in Bible narrative.

There's no thief like a bad book

Dutch version / Nederlands > Er is geen dief als een slecht boek


"There's no thief like a bad book."
- Italian Proverb

"Do not be misled:
'Bad company corrupts good character.'"
1 Corinthians 15:33

"Forsake foolishness and live,
and go in the way of understanding."
Proverbs 9:6

Lord let my family come into contact with the right people.
Let me always be wise enough and making the right choices.
Make sure that I always stay on the straight path
and with my good example others bring to the truth.
