Best books to learn The Bible as literature, in order

Reading the Bible as literature rather than scripture takes a deliberate approach, so a path sets you up to see its craft. Begin with a literary guide to its narratives, poetry, and style, choose a translation that reads well, then move through the great books — Genesis, Job, the Psalms, the Gospels — with a companion illuminating the artistry as you go.
