Getting the most out of biblical narrative -- The subject of every story: universal human experience -- Setting in Bible stories: seeing the particulars -- Characterization in Bible stories (part 1): how writers do it -- Characterization in Bible stories (part 2): what readers need to do -- Plot structure and unity: the beginning, middle, and ending of each story -- Plot devices: how storytellers tell their story with beauty and skill -- Hero stories: a neglected but fruitful literary device -- From story to meaning: how to find significance in a narrative text.
