How to Read the Bible for the First Time

 If you've never read the Bible before, I don't recommend simply going from start to finish. Instead, read it this way:

  • Genesis (all)
  • Exodus 1-20
  • Numbers 11-27
  • Psalms: 1, 18, 22, 23, 32, 34, 36, 42-43, 45-46, 51, 69, 70, 72, 87, 93, 95, 98, 100, 110-134
  • Isaiah: 4-9, 14, 25-26, 40, 42, 49-56, 59-66
  • Matthew-Jude (all)
  • The rest of the Old Testament
  • Revelation
  • Apocryphal books (optional)

This helps you to see Jesus as the fulfillment of the Old Testament, and then to go back and fill in the gaps.
