I have a book ''The Book of God'' it's the Bible written as a novel by Walter Wangerin. I have read it from cover to cover, that's something I would not consider doing with the Bible. The book flows like a continuous story without all the repetition and begetting found in the Bible. I kept thinking of the old Hollywood classics. Yes, I know it's only one man's take on the 'story', but the Bible also as various takes by different authors, plus the adaptations for the different branches of Christianity. Meaning, I'm not going to read them all, for something call'' THE Bible''.
