Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!!!
Review: Excellent for Bible College Students or Reviewing certain times in Biblical History.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great Resource
Review: I am very glad that I decided to purchase this book. The bible can get very repetitious and confusing. This book helps bring the history and chronology on the bible into place. It isn't cheap and isn't the easiest to read but I'm glad I have it. It's bulky so it's not the easiest to carry around. This is not meant to be a bible that you take to church and use when you want to follow along in scriptures. Though you could use it for that, but you'd go crazy.

A chronological look at the scriptures and a comparisson of the various tales that different biblical writers told. it's nice to see the stories of Moses and Jesus, as told by different books, side by side. Comparing how the gospels differ in style is really interesting and you really get a feel for the writers. This is original King James, so the writing can be difficult to get through at times. The year is mentioned at the beginning of each story. This bible is very easy to follow through and easy to navigate. there are numerous indexes so you can search by year, bible chapter, or story. This is a great bible that I'm glad i have as a resource and highly recommed to others.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very helpful perspective.
Review: It is a very interesting perspective to be able to read the entire Bible in harmony. Reading the 4 Gospels this way was especially helpful because it alleviated the confusion of bouncing back and forth and trying to keep track of who wrote what. I do find the King James version a little difficult, so I use my NIV study Bible along with it. I would rate the Reese Chronological Bible 9 or 10 if it had been in the NIV.

Summary: Use your own Bible with Selwyn Hughes' Cover to Cover
Review: Selwyn Hughes has written a wonderful book that may be used along with this or as a stand alone using whatever Bible you are most familiar with. It is called "Cover to Cover, Read the Bible Through in One Year As it Actually Happened." ISBN: 0805421440.

I have compared Hughes' first and second days of reading to the "Look Inside This Book" of the Reese Chronological Bible and they are almost completely identical. Cover to Cover includes an overview of each book (bird's eye view, Biblical context, main characters, special features, how Jesus relates, a teaching, and a verse to remember), a continuous timeline throughout, great maps and diagrams of significant places throughout, thousands of cross-references, a daily thought & contemplation, a daily key reading, a monthly diary page, and is, of course, broken into daily readings so you may finish the Bible in a year.

Some reviewers of Cover to Cover lamented that there wasn't a Chronological Bible already available to keep from having to flip around -- that is where Reese Chronological Bible comes in. It really fills the bill! But if you prefer a version rather than King James or can't afford Reese, then Cover to Cover is a complete solution.

I love both books!

Summary: A necessity for Chronolgical Bible Storying
Review: This book is a necessity for Chronolgical Bible Storying.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Study Guide!
Review: This book is one of the great study guides available. I teach Sunday School and was putting together lessons on a character study of King David, and this book was a very valuable resource in putting psalms together with the various times in David's life. It's King James and that is a really big plus as well (I wouldn't have used it had it been NIV).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Study Guide
Review: This book is phenomenal. It makes the Bible stories that we've always heard come to life. I teach a class on the Psalms and the other Wisdom Books. There couldn't have been a more helpful guide than the Reese Chronological Bible.

Not only have I enjoyed it immensely as a researh and study guide, so have a few of my students. Seeing the events of the Bible in the order in which they happened really opens your eyes to the awesome wonder and marvelous works of God. One cannot help but believe that God really does exist....for who else could have made such a creation.

Many kudos to Mr. Reese.
