Reese Chronological Bible

Posted on by WLue777

The Reese Chronological Bible is one of the best-known chronological study Bibles in the King James Version (KJV). It was compiled by Dr. Edward Reese and first published in 1980, with a revised study edition released later by Baker Publishing. Rather than arranging the Bible in canonical book order, it places passages in the order the events are believed to have occurred.

Key features

  • King James Version (KJV) text
  • Scripture arranged chronologically rather than Genesis-to-Revelation order
  • Over 200 chronological sections
  • Extensive historical notes, timelines, maps, and archaeological information
  • Genealogies and dates integrated into the narrative
  • A built-in 365-day reading plan

How it differs from a standard Bible

Instead of reading:

  • Genesis
  • Exodus
  • Leviticus
  • Numbers

you might read passages like:

  • John 1:1–2 (the eternal Word)
  • Genesis 1–2 (Creation)
  • Job (often placed during the time of the patriarchs)
  • Psalms written by David while reading about David’s life in Samuel
  • Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and the Minor Prophets inserted into the historical books when they ministered

This arrangement helps readers see how biblical history unfolds as one continuous story.

Strengths

  • Excellent for understanding the historical flow of Scripture.
  • Makes the prophets much easier to understand because they’re read alongside the kings they addressed.
  • Places many Psalms in the historical setting in which they were likely written.
  • Helpful for Bible teachers and serious students.

Things to keep in mind

Chronological order is not inspired—it is an editorial reconstruction based on the best historical evidence available. Some placements (such as the dating of Job or the order of certain Psalms and prophetic passages) involve scholarly judgment, and other chronological Bibles may differ slightly.

Since you’ve previously asked about chronological Bible reading and in-depth Bible study, the Reese Chronological Bible is one of the strongest KJV-based resources available. If you prefer the ESV, NKJV, or CSB, I can also compare the best chronological study Bibles in those translations.

Bibliology is the branch of Systematic Theology that studies the Bible itself—its origin, inspiration, authority, canon, preservation, transmission, interpretation, and sufficiency. The word comes from the Greek βιβλίον (biblion), meaning “book” or “scroll,” and λόγος (logos), meaning “study” or “word.”

Genesis vs Revelation

Posted on by WLue777

Genesis and Revelation are the bookends of the Bible. Genesis records the beginning of creation, humanity, sin, death, and God’s plan of redemption. Revelation records the consummation of God’s redemptive plan, the defeat of evil, the final judgment, the renewal of creation, and the eternal reign of Jesus Christ.
Genesis tells us how everything began; Revelation tells us how everything will be completed.

PREFACE
A little quiet time with God before retiring, makes a fitting close for the day. It gives us an opportunity . . .
to think over what we have done during the busy hours;
to recall our mistakes, that if possible they may be corrected;
to rekindle the peace of Christ into our hearts, if perchance we have lost it in the day’s distractions;
to gather the lessons we should get from the day’s experiences; and to commit ourselves into the hands of God.

For such a meditation, the best help is a word of God that will guide our thoughts and lead us into close communion with Christ.

These Evening Thoughts have been prepared in the hope that they may prove helpful to those who are in the habit of enjoying such a silent time at the close of the day. No attempt has been made to follow any definite order in the arrangement of the Scripture verses. Each person has his own course of Bible reading, and these are meant to be only quiet meditations in the last moments of the days..
