NKJ One-Year Parallel Chronological Bible

 

 

Home:  Creator, Maker: Cosmos

 

Link to an independent webpage that features the One-Year Parallel Chronological Bible.

A Chronological Bible in 365 readings, one per day of the year, with parallel passages presented side-by-side in a four-column format.  The New King James text is arranged in the order that the events actually occurred, as best as I can determine, mostly by following Dr. Floyd Nolan Jones, with my own confirmations.  When two or more authors report the same event, I display their reports in intricate parallel to emphasize the common wording and the word-for-word differences (underlined).

Links are provided to some additional resources, such as maps, charts, spreadsheets, etc., to help with perspective on the events and how they relate to each other.  Links to the .pdf files are provided below.  (Links to the .doc and .xls documents are provided last below, in case you prefer them to .pdf.)

Text colors:  narration is in black text, but moved narration (due to chronology or parallelization) is in blue text, God’s words are in red text, men’s words are in green text, and angels’ words are in bright green text.

Highlighting: red marks God’s covenants, green marks “days of the Lord”, turquoise marks questions I still have and date information, pink marks messages about text moved for reasons of chronology and parallels, and yellow marks names of the Lord and many other notable issues.
