| Here's the results of my last "read through the Old Testament". I'm a visual person, and I've always wanted to "see" the O.T. (ie, when, where and who were at what times) Sorry it's kinda huge, but there's so many details, I had to show it in it's original size:   |

| Love that kind of stuff. I have an excellent book which comes with many many loose leaf charts.
Well done, on a lot of hard work.

| Thanks. I love this stuff too. I'm slowly re-doing many charts and studies like these that were lost when my Bible bag was stolen several years ago.
This time they're all getting scanned and backed up on several hard drives. Not gonna lose all that work again ! |

| Wow, that looks seriously cool. But I'm going to have to print it just to be able to really see it. Oh and btw Fundy....I like the new avatar....you were long over due for a change.

AGREED !!
Oh and as far as printing it goes... I had to poster-print it. Took 4 papers and I taped them all together, folded them up and stuck them in my new Bible study binder (the one that, if it gets stolen or lost, I can restore from backups)
I started with the genealogy (that's sideways) back in early 2000s, then went through the OT again in 2008 and 2009 and filled in the rest with Paintshop Pro. The genealogy had to be sideways otherwise the names would've been too long on the chart and the whole chart would've stretched on and on and on. I also had my own drawings for the "major events" on the bottom, but I opted for the more professional images swiped from the internet. |

| How cool Guilty/Forgiven to do this.
I started to read the Old Testament too,
Job was hard to read and I decided not to read a lot of verses. |

| Job IS hard. But it's so worth reading all the way through. There's a lot of great truths in there, and lot's of great lessons about this life, where our priorities should be, and the ultimate revelation of God's redeeming grace. |

| I had an incredibly difficult time reading Job (but I made it through). There is some really cool stuff in it though.

| I used to think that Job was hard to read. Read this book more like a novel or it can become depressing. Read it from start to finish in one sitting if you can. It makes more sense as a whole. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |
