The Bible records the history of the Jewish faith and the early Church. But history isn’t its primary purpose.
2 Timothy 3:16 (ESV)
All Scripture is breathed out by God
and profitable for teaching,
for reproof, for correction,
and for training in righteousness.
A chronological version of the Bible rearranges Scripture according to a timeline. It connects a prophet with the right king, fits the psalms to their time and place, puts Paul’s letters in the order he wrote them. If you haven’t read the Word chronologically at least once, give it a try. You might be surprised how much history you learn.
