I took a Bible as Literature class for my degree. I found it very useful. Nice to know how scholars break down the Bible into parts: Mythological, Historical, Poetic, and Prophetic. Mythological was stuff like Genesis-Deut.; Historical was stuff like 1 and 2 Samuel, Kings; the Poetic was from Job to the Song of Solomon. Prophetic was stuff like Isaiah and Jeremiah. Overall, I liked the class...and it was an easy A that I got over the course of like 2 weeks. Winter classes rule My favorite parts were Psalms and Song of Solomon.
