I suppose that it is possible to see the Bible (or Biblical history) [in] Circle terms: starting with Attraction (the Creation Story), through Ordination (the rest of the Pentateuch, broadly), then following the history of Israel through Outer Action, (the Exodus to the Kings), Complication, Distraction, Fragmentation to Revolution and the final Simplification under the Greeks and Romans leading to the time of Crisis – and Christ: and the transformation to Love, and Revelation.

(Unity –)	Attraction		The Beginnings; The Patriarchs	Gn.	c1850-1700BC
	Ordination		Moses & Joshua	Ex/Nb/Dt/Jos	c1500-1200BC
	Outer Action		The Judges to Solomon	Jg/Is/K/Ch	c1200-931BC
	Complication	\	*Judah & Israel	K/Ch/Am/Ho/Is/Mi	931-721BC
	Distraction	\	End of the Kingdom of Judah (Deportation to Babylon c600BC)	K/Ch/Zp/Na/Hab/Jr/Ezk	721-587[BC]
	Fragmentation	/
	Revolution	/
	Simplification		The Restoration at the Persian Period The Hellenistic Period	Ezr/Ne/Hg/Zc/Ml M/Dn	538-323[BC] 323-63[BC]
	CRISIS		Roman Palestine to the time of Hadrian		63BC-AD135
	Love….

*[A dotted arrow here with a question mark connects/moves ‘Judah and Israel’ to Fragmentation (& presumably ‘End of the Kingdom of Judah (Deportation to Babylon c600BC)’ to Fragmentation &/or to Revolution)]
