Have you ever tried to read the Bible from its start to the end?

Many Christians have not thought about this question as most of them do not even consider it. Now a chronological reading of the Bible program offers help.

It goes by the name of “Through the Bible … as It Happened!” The program has simply put Bible content into a chronological order so the events appear as they happened.

This is similar to a novel that follows the chronological format of storytelling. If you read Bible in the normal way, you have to follow its themed format where the content is according to the subject and not the incidents as they happened.

Take for example some of the Bible materials, such as 1 & 2 Chronicles, 1 & 2 Kings, and 1 & 2 Samuel.

They have the same pattern and provide Israel’s history from the time of its kings till it dissolved.

If the Bible is read in the normal way, you come across the same event three times. That is where the chronological version differs.

It puts the events in order so the reader reads Israel’s history only once. It helps the readers understand the nuances of all accounts, characters and incidents.

That is not the only thing this program improves in reading and understanding the Bible. Most prophets had ministries when Israel existed, but the Old Testament mentions these books only in its end section.

David Shreve, the author of this chronological Bible reading plan has put those prophetical writings chronologically, verse by verse.

This helps you understand the Bible better. The same holds true for the books of Job, Psalms, Proverbs and others.

All accounts have been provided in chronological format in this Bible reading program as they occurred and not haphazardly that forces the reader to figure out the order of the events.

This chronological version makes it so much easier to understand the events mentioned in these books.

Genesis to Revelation – the whole Bible has been put in a chronological format, making it an amazing read.

That is not the only advantage this program offers. The author has written commentary notes of 1200 pages.

He is the right authority on this subject as he has degrees in Greek and Bible from Cedarville University. With his experience of 50 years researching and teaching the Bible, he has the expertise and standing of an evangelical conservative.

David Shreve started working on this program in 1974, at a time when there was no chronological reading system for Bible in place.

He has not stopped since then and continued to revise the Bible content regularly. He launched this program in 2018 for everyone and since then it has become a popular program for the chronological reading of the Bible.

It helps even a layperson understand the Bible events clearly.
