Claim: Biblical storytelling, much of which is done as a single storyteller  learning one story from the Bible and performing it, borrows many techniques from acting, and requires the storyteller to visualize the scene of the story.
Evidence: Much of Biblical Storytelling is done as a single storyteller learning one story from the Bible and performing it: Presenting a story from the Bible borrows many techniques from acting, yet in many ways it is quite a distinct art form. Because storytelling is usually done without many props or sets, this requires the storyteller to visualise the scene of the story in order to describe it physically whilst telling the story.
