As lit, they all pretty much suck. They're written the way a teenaged girl gossips: and then this happened, and then this happened, and then this happened. There's no flow and there are no words to ease transitions. The skill of writing has come a long way since ancient times.
Aside from the genealogical records, which can get rambling, I would have to totally disagree with that statement. Many of the books of the bible set out from the opening passage to address a certain topic and follow that topic all the way through to the end of the specific book, building point upon point on top of the opening topic. Examples:
- very single statement of the book of Galatians is geared towards addressing the single point of the book (letter).
- the entire book of Hebrews, which is a pretty sizable letter, addresses the first point made in the opening verse.
Even in OT cases like Genesis, which includes a long list of genealogy, there is still an easily identifiable flow and purpose to the book and it obviously transitions directly into the next book, Exodus.
So you’ll have to point out an example where you think there is no flow or transition.
