The Art of Story Structure
In this video I explore the two main ways biblical authors structure their stories. We look at some fascinating examples in the whole Joseph and Abraham narratives as well as the book of Jonah.
These structures come from the great work "The Literary Structure of the Old Testament" by David Dorsey (https://www.amazon.com/Literary-Structure-Old-Testament-Genesis-Malachi/dp/0801027934)
The Bible is the greatest work of literary genius. And The Bible is Art is a YouTube Channel devoted to explaining this literary art in all its sophistication, elegance, and design.
