Answer 1

The Flood story is a myth based on an old Babylonian myth. That's probably the most direct example I can think of.

Psalms has a lot of poetry, as does Proverbs.

Leviticus has lots of laws in it.

You can see several letters in the New Testament.

Revelations is a lot of vague prophecies.

There are a few references to historical figures, but much of the "historical" stories would fall under legends.

There are also a few wise sayings in the Bible, the best of which is "Do unto others as others would do unto you", i.e. the Golden Rule.
