Hi! I’m Rodney Harrier, the author and administrator of this site.

Where are we at in our chronological journey? If you have followed along since the beginning of the year, on April 20 we are in the book of 1 Samuel and reading many of the Psalms David wrote fleeing from jealous King Saul. If you are harassed or plagued by the jealousy of others or are unfairly treated, you will identify with David. He faced many storms of trouble but God brought him through them. Read more.

Here are some helpful answers to questions people have about the chronological Bible.

What is a Chronological Bible?

The Biblical events, people, and writings are arranged in Chronological order, unlike standard Bibles.

Why is the Bible not chronological?

About 1/2 of the Bible is chronological.

  • The historical section from Genesis–Esther is mostly chronological.
  • The prophets were, for the most part, not interested in chronology because their Jewish audience already knew their history. Instead, the prophets proclaimed the messages of God much as a minister gives sermons.
  • In the New Testament, the gospel accounts of the life of Christ and the book of Acts are mostly chronological.
  • The book of Revelation is apocryphal but the events for the most part are sequential.

Bible Chronology helps you know why you believe what you believe

It is almost incredible that so many people don’t know the basic content of the Bible and in what order the events occur. Because of this, young adult Christians (and some not so young) can go through a crisis of belief.
This is vital and gets personal. Maybe my story is like yours. Read about it here:
