How to Read the Bible Through
As already stated, reading the Bible through from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22 is not the best way to read this unique library. You would be a long time getting to the life and ministry of Jesus Christ as revealed in the Gospels. A balanced reading through the Bible calls for reading the Old and New Testaments simultaneously. Here are four approaches for reading through the Bible.
· Place a bookmark in the Bible at three places: Genesis, Job, and Mathew. By reading one chapter from each of these sections every day, you will read the Old Testament once and the New Testament twice in about eighteen months.
· Read on Bible Chapter a day and you will read the entire Bible in three years and three months.
· Read three Bible chapters every weekday and five chapters on Sundays, and you will read the entire Bible in less than a year.
· In January and February, read Genesis through Deuteronomy. In March and April, read all of the New Testament. In May and June, read Joshua through Esther. In July and August, read Job through Song of Solomon. In September and October, reread all of the New Testament. In November and December, read Isaiah through Malachi.
