Reading The Chronological Bible Is Enjoyable To Many Individuals

By Marissa Velazquez


Many people have called the Bible the greatest story ever told. It is consistently the biggest bestseller in the world. Western laws and cultures have been shaped by this book, and it has affected millions of people in a positive way for thousands of years. Statistics, however, indicate that not many people have read this volume in its entirety, which may be why the chronological Bible is so popular among certain individuals. This version of the book is thought to make reading the volume easier for most people.

Virtually all people are at least somewhat familiar with the Bible. Certain individuals, however, do not understand that the books in this volume are not presented in the order in which they took place. This means that they do not follow each other exactly the way they were written. Instead, some of the events occurred in an order different from the way they were arranged in the original transcript.

The aforementioned book contains approximately 1,200 chapters and over 31,000 verses. These cover centuries of history. Those who have carefully researched times and events have managed to arrange the Bible into chronological order. This does not change the message, but merely the order in which the facts are presented.

Many people are intrigued with the Bible when it is placed in chronological order. Creation, as one would suspect, is at the beginning of the book. However, the order then changes considerably. To read biblical events in the sequence in which they occurred, an individual would first read Genesis chapters one through twenty-two. The book of Job would come next, and after reading this, the individual would return to complete Genesis.

The book of Exodus would be next, followed by Psalm ninety, the book of Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, and Psalm ninety-one. The book of 2nd Chronicles would come next, but would be interrupted approximately 16 times with other books in order to follow chronological order.

While the New Testament Gospels remain in the same order when one is reading in sequence, from there on things dramatically change. John's gospel is followed immediately by the Acts of the Apostles, but only the first fourteen chapters. After these, James' Epistles are read in their entirety, followed by the fifteenth chapter of Acts. The latter is then interrupted again about eight times before one reaches the end. The book of Colossians comes next.

The Epistles of John, of which there are 3, are interrupted numerous times throughout the last book of the Bible, which is the Revelation. However, Revelation remains the final book, even for those reading in sequence. Numerous individuals discover that this volume can be enjoyed more when read in the aforementioned order. However, not surprisingly, this choice is up to the reader's personal preferences.

Individuals who want to read chronologically have 2 options. They can go online or visit a Christian bookstore to buy a chronological Bible, or merely obtain an outline that explains which books and chapters should be read in what order. To read the whole Bible in three hundred sixty-five days, the reader must devote about twenty minutes each day to this endeavor. Those who want to obtain this version will be pleased to find that it is easy to locate.
