Excerpt from Teacher-Training Essentials, Vol. 2: First Standard Course
I. I ts variety. The Bible is a library of many kinds of books. It contains a large and complex literature, in poetry and in prose - songs and sermons, proverbs and parables, essays and elegies, epics and epistles, Odes and orations, riddles and rhapsodies, lyrics and love-stories, the historical and the hortatory, the dramatic and the didactic. The Bible is the great source-book of pedagogical materials for the Sunday-school teacher.
The Jews counted our Old Testament books as twenty two, instead of thirty-nine, regarding the twelve minor prophets as one, and also combining other books. We are accustomed to say that the Bible contains sixty-six books - thirty-nine in the Old Testament and twenty-seven in the New Testament - but there are really more than sixty-six, for some of these are made up of smaller books and tracts.
