Read your Bible right through in 1 year
—chronologically
This scheme doesn’t just start at Genesis and go straight through to Revelation. It  groups sections of the Bible chronologically. This means, for example, that:
- It puts Job into Genesis because he lived around Abraham's time.
- Many Psalms are slotted into the historical books like Samuel and Kings.
- The New Testament letters fit into the book of Acts, etc.
There are some background notes for each month's readings. They will open in a separate window. Make your selection below.
