Old Testament

[FaithT]

How many here read their Bibles on a regular basis? Among those who do, how do you read it? All the way through? Various books? How many here don’t like to read much of the OT, except for Psalms and Proverbs. I much prefer those two and the NT.

 

[Water and Fire]

I read ther OT all the time... since without the OT, you cannot understand the NT.

I love Genesis and the OT historical books. The OT gets a lot of my time. Granted not 80% but a lot.

I need to read my Bible more often, but when responding to posts, I check an online Bible to quote the right verses. Sometimes I quote the NT, while others the OT.

The Bible needs to be understood as a whole. Don't necessarily do front cover to back cover but read it chronologically.

I did do a bit of the Bible in a Year podcast, and it helped me understand the Bible more. I should start listening to it again.

Great. Also look into the Bible Timeline by Jeff Cavins.

I’m a regular. But I have been listening a lot lately. I’m a fan of David Suchet reading Scripture. I read quite a bit in the OT as I see a lot of types and shadows foretelling the new. It all works together.
