Excerpt from The Bible at a Single View: With an Appendix, How to Read the Bible

Bible, sets himself to make a mental summary of it, very likely his first impression will be that What he is dealing with is history; and this from the simple fact that one who has gone through the Bible from cover to cover has been traversing the ages, from the creation of the world to some day of judgment in the future. But this is only a first impression. Closer inspection shows that What the Bible contains of history is historic framework, that serves to hold together other kinds of litera ture, such as story, song, discourse, drama, philos ophy, epistles. These other kinds of literature, sometimes called the higher literary forms, contain the real message of Scripture.
