What type of literature is the Bible?

Drama
Mythology
Epic
Philosophy

The correct answer is: Epic

The Bible contains elements from various literary genres, including history, poetry, and law. However, the overall structure, themes, and style of the Bible align more closely with an epic, making it the most fitting genre for this text. While some biblical stories may contain dramatic or mythical elements, these do not fully encompass the entire text. Additionally, while philosophical concepts may be present in the Bible, it is not primarily a work of philosophy. Therefore, option C is the most accurate and appropriate genre for the Bible.
