More people read the Bible than any other book. Indeed, many try to
live their lives according to its words. The question is, do they
understand what they're reading? As Steven McKenzie shows in this
provocative book, quite often the answer is, "No." McKenzie argues
that to comprehend the Bible we must grasp the intentions of the
biblical authors themselves-what sort of texts they thought they
were writing and how they would have been understood by their
intended audience. In short, we must recognize the genres to which
these texts belong. McKenzie examines several genres that are
typically misunderstood, offering careful readings of specific
texts to show how the confusion arises, and how knowing the genre
produces a correct reading. The book of Jonah, for example, offers
many clues that it is meant as a humorous satire, not a
straight-faced historical account of a man who was swallowed by a
fish. Likewise, McKenzie explains that the very names "Adam" and
"Eve" tell us that these are not historical characters, but figures
who symbolize human origins ("Adam" means man, "Eve" is related to
the word for life). Similarly, the authors of apocalyptic
texts-including the Book of Revelation-were writing allegories of
events that were happening in their own time. Not for a moment
could they imagine that centuries afterwards, readers would be
poring over their works for clues to the date of the Second Coming
of Christ, or when and how the world would end. For anyone who
takes reading the Bible seriously and who wants to get it right,
this book will be both heartening and enlightening.
