Like for many others, reading about people and events set in Biblical times makes the Bible come alive in a more personal way by giving me characters I can relate to on a personal level. For example, reading in the Bible about the 40 days in the desert and the parting of the Red Sea is fascinating, but it is even more so when I experience it in the slowed-down way that Biblical fiction allows. It helps me to understand the people in the Bible even when I want to shout out them for not seeing something that's obvious in hindsight. In addition, it helps make books of the Bible that are often overshadowed by others, as well as people and events that are only present for a little bit of the Bible, more memorable.Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10407962333359306366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4929786450085244766.post-44389913637983116852019-07-01T12:32:36.828-06:002019-07-01T12:32:36.828-06:00I've read some Biblical fiction - some is bett...I've read some Biblical fiction - some is better than others ...

Between connecting the dots between contemporary passages of scripture to grasping a little more what life was probably like, etc. It adds life to what can sometimes feel distant or disconnected.
