David Dorsey wrote: "Humans need and appreciate communication that is arranged and organized." He makes the claim in the context of his discussion of biblical literature having been written not to be read but to be heard, even when read. "The Bible was written for an oral culture; the text was heard before it was seen; it was intended to be read aloud." This, by the way, is the best way to hear the message of the last book of the Bible, the Revelation of Jesus Christ. Read it out loud. "Blessed is the one who reads and those who hear the words" (Rev. 1:3). It takes about 90 minutes to read orally; but it is worth the time to hear what is hard to see.
