This is a literary form that has seldom been studied in depth, although it appears with great frequency throughout the Old and New Testaments, as it does in other ancient and many modern literary works. It also serves as a highly useful reference work that identifies and analyzes a large number of individual passages, as well as entire compositions (gospels, letters, hymns, etc.), which appear throughout the canonical Scriptures and beyond. This is a groundbreaking study that will fascinate and inform anyone who is interested in the dynamics of literary composition. Its special appeal will be to students, scholars, pastors, and others who seek to understand more fully the message of the Bible and the way that message is conveyed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Obscure Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44038159138902,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/1031\/1254\/files\/Frontcover_MagicEraser_ec75aa7c-1db5-416f-96d3-3d2a3fe36dfb.jpg?v=1772050186","url":"https:\/\/obscurebooks.myshopify.com\/products\/the-shape-of-biblical-language-by-john-breck","provider":"Obscure Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
