Item code: 9781414314082
The One Year Chronological Bible is ideal for anyone who wants to
take a fresh look at the Bible by reading it in the order the events
actually happened. You can read the entire Bible in as little as 15 minutes
a day with this One Year Bible, the best selling daily reading Bible brand.
A fascinating way to read through the Bible in one year . . . in only
fifteen minutes per day!
Now you can gain a better understanding of the
order of biblical events and the historical context in which they unfolded.
The One Year Chronological Bible arranges the entire Bible
text—books, chapters, and even verses—in the order the events actually
happened.
In The One Year Chronological Bible, prophetic books are
interwoven with the historical accounts they accompanied. Psalms follow the
events about which they were written. Proverbs are placed in the time frame
in which they were compiled. The life of Christ is woven into one moving
story. And Paul’s letters to the young churches in the first century are
integrated into the book of Acts.
The One Year Chronological Bible also has:
- 365 daily readings to help you read the entire Bible chronologically
in one year
- Transition statements to help you understand why some Scripture
portions appear where they do
- Historical dates indicating when the events actually occurred
- A general timeline of major events to give you a clear overview of
Israel’s history
- A Scripture index in canonical order to help you find your favorite
passages quickly and easily
You do not have to be a Bible historian to appreciate the fascinating new
perspective waiting for you in The One Year Chronological Bible. It’s
like reading some of your favorite passages again for the very first time.
Spiritual leaders of all generations have agreed upon
the importance of daily Bible reading as a vital means of growth and
maturity. Many Bible readers have wished for a method that would help them
with the discipline of a regular, systematic study of God’s inspired Word.
The One Year Chronological Bible not only meets this need but also
gives you a perspective you cannot get from a Bible laid out in canonical
order.
What is the canonical order?
The canonical order is the order in which the books of the Bible are
normally arranged. This order groups books of similar content together. The
books of the Bible are arranged canonically in the following order: Law
(Genesis-Deuteronomy), History (Joshua-Esther), Wisdom Literature (Job-Song
of Songs), Prophets (Isaiah-Malachi), Gospels (Matthew-John), early church
history (Acts), Pauline Epistles (Romans-Philemon), General Epistles
(Hebrews-Jude), and Apocalyptic Literature (Revelation). The canonical order
was developed by Jerome, who translated the Bible into Latin in the late
fourth century ad.
Although Jerome’s order is logical, it does not clearly represent the
order in which the events of the Bible unfolded. For instance, why are the
books that record the Israelites’ return from captivity (Ezra and Nehemiah)
arranged before the prophetic books that predict their exile (Jeremiah and
Ezekiel)? Or how do the four accounts of Christ’s life fit together? To give
you a more historical perspective, the Scriptures in The One Year
Chronological Bible have been arranged in chronological order.
What is chronological order?
Chronological order is the order in which the events occurred in time. In
The One Year Chronological Bible, all Scripture is arranged according
to the time sequence of the events. The return of the Israelites from
captivity, therefore, comes after the earlier prophets and Daniel, rather
than before them. In addition, all four accounts of Christ’s life are woven
together, giving a clear picture of Christ’s time on earth from birth to his
ascension into heaven.
Furthermore, The One Year Chronological Bible divides the entire
New Living Translation into 365 daily readings. This easy-to-use
reading plan helps you get through the entire Bible in one year.
Other One Year Bible products are available in canonical order, in
which a portion of the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms, and Proverbs
make up each daily reading. These One Year Bible products come in the
New Living Translation, King James Version, and New International Version.
