Tales of Learning

The Bible is literally, the story of everything.

It provides both history and teaching through the use of story, with the text providing literal depictions in some instances, and important symbolism and allegory in others.

The greatest story-teller of all was Jesus. He used stories ("parables") to make his teaching memorable and repeatable, as well as to reveal deep, hidden truths about God that could not be conveyed in more direct, earthly ways.

This list includes many of the Bible's most famous and intriguing stories.
