[...]

Slackers.

You have to make a plan, though. You can't read the whole thing at once. This is mine, carefully selected and pruned. The big decision I made was to skip the Book of Isaiah which is probably a mistake, but it looked exhausting.

Old Testament

Genesis
Exodus
Numbers
Deuteronomy
Joshua
Judges
Ruth
Samuel 1
Samuel 2
Kings 1
Kings 2
Esther

Do you read it studiously in silence or do you declaim it to the Pembrokeshire hills?

 

[...]

Silently, but whenever I get the chance. But you don't have to rush these things. The Bible isn't going anywhere.

The funny thing is I'd been reading it off my kindle so I had no idea how massive a book it is.

Went into Foyles at the weekend and was stunned at this brick of a book.

Tempted to get a mini one you can carry more easily but I assume I'll need a magnifying glass.

I used to order all the Bibles for Foyles.

 

[...]

It's an anthology, anyway. That's the way to approach it.

My favourite line from the bible is when god sez "my name is I am"

But for the time and fate @Corpsey could have brought a Bible off me.

simchas torah [when the jewish reading cycle starts anew] is the last week of this month. i'm more mentally stable + Freshly Christianised and would be down for a parsha study group. the haftoros [readings from the prophets for that section] would also have us covering more ground of the bible than just Torah
