ESV Chronological Bible

TruTone®, Brown

While it is best to study the Bible book by book through all sixty-six books, 

it is not the only way to do so. Based on historical facts and times, 

the Bible is a historical work. This historical work is God's, which dates 

back to eternity past. It can be helpful to look at God's Word linearly to 

see events unfold over time. ESV Chronological Bible does exactly that.

The Bible is also arranged in a 365-day reading plan.

Reading 106  ~ Consequences for David's Sin

The scripture to be read for this day includes:

2 Samuel 21:1-22

1 Chronicles 20:4-8

2 Samuel 13:1-14:33

Psalm 35:1-28 

Matthew, Mark, and Luke often overlap and for this reason these three

Gospels are called the Synoptic Gospels. You will see these three books

side-by-side in order to compare their likeness.

There is also an incredible chronological timeline of  the Bible

as well as maps.

The ESV Chronological Study Bible is a great gift or purchase 

for your own use. When paired with your traditional Bible, 

a chronological study Bible enhances your time studying 

God's Word. This layout may give you a new perspective on scripture.

  A chronological Bible may be an ideal fit for those seemingly uninterested 

in religion or intimidated by traditional Bibles. The ESV Chronological Bible 

reads like a cross between a truth based history book and a factual novel. 

An average person unfamiliar with the Bible may find this more logical 

since it is based on an actual timeline instead of dividing into books. 

This is a good place to start.
