History on a Story Arc
Back matter

Figures

One visual model per chapter, and one image for each act.

  1. Figure 1. The correction that misses

    A target, a series of corrections, each landing a little beside the mark, and the drift they make together.

  2. Figure 2. Conditions first

    Two columns: what must hold, and what would make the claim fail, written before the first verse.

  3. Figure 3. Entering language

    Naming, the goal, securing the goal, missing it: Genesis 2–3 beside a child learning to speak.

  4. Figure 4. The bridge

    Romans 5 looking back to Genesis, Romans 7 in the middle, Romans 9–11 looking forward to Revelation.

  5. Figure 5. The fall from within

    The city built on a substitute, its fall, and those released by it.

  6. Figure 6. Three scenes of recognition

    The pump, the garden and the dialogue side by side: who stands inside, who outside, and where they meet.

  7. Figure 7. Where we are

    The seven chapters as one arc, and the present marked on it.

Act images: one image opens each act. Cover image: to be designed.
