I totally agree with you on the false choice between history or point. All biblical history is theological history; it all has a point, a redemptive point.

Well done. Don’t know how fitting this is, but have you ever noticed how so many Reformed folk seem to think a given text must either have a point, or must be history, but can’t be both? Framework guys may indeed see poetic elements in the creation account, but why can’t it still be historical? Can’t God wrote three dimensional poems, and isn’t that what a type is?
