Annsan_In_Him
In addition to the correct list of genres listed by dewcoons, it is a unique collection of writings inspired by the Holy Spirit, with a precise use of words that is staggering. It is also a mystery book because it contains both mysteries and secrets that are only revealed by the Holy Spirit to those sincerely searching its pages to learn the mind of Christ, for the entire collection points to Christ. The Bible itself warns readers that their view of God is what determines their understanding, or their misunderstanding, of God and His word:
"To the faithful you show yourself faithful; to those with integrity you show integrity. To the pure you show yourself pure but to the wicked you show yourself hostile. You rescue the humble, but your eyes watch the proud and humiliate them." Psalm 18:25-27 & 2 Samuel 22:26-28 NLT
"For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. Nothing in all creation is hidden from his sight." - Hebrews 4:12-13 NLT
We are tested by God every time we read His word, as to whether we are pure in motive and humble in spirit, seeking His truth or if we are out to ridicule God and His holy word. The latter are on the highway to hell but if they humbled themselves under God's mighty hand, they would be spared.

The God of Abraham designed the Book of Leviticus as a advanced science Book that mankind mistranslated into the unscientific religious Book we still think it is today. I know all this because I am the one who discovered it and can now reinterpret this Book back into the advanced science Book it's always been.
