Rule 3 - Remember the grand story and where you are reading, seeking to sense the christological pressure of the Bible.
Rule 4 - Work to read the way the words go, so that what is heard is the voice of the Author/author, not your preferences.
Rule 5 - Approach the text in humility, that is, in dependent prayer and in the communion of the saints.
