I have managed to gain some ground over the last four days of Bible Reading. In the Old Testament, I have finished the Book of Judges, while in the New Testament, I have read through Titus, Philemon, and Hebrews.

Tomorrow, I will proceed with the Book of Ruth in the OT and the Epistle General of James in the NT

17 Then Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, What is your name, so that when your words come true we may give you honour?
18 But the angel of the Lord said to him, Why are you questioning me about my name, seeing that it is a wonder?

Picking up some longer passages of reading today, and hoping to gain further momentum towards the coming weekend, I have finished reading Joshua followed by the first three chapters of Judges in the Old Testament. At the same time, in the New Testament, I have moved on from Philippians and Colossians to read through First and Second Thessalonians, and also the pastoral Epistles First and Second Timothy.

Tomorrow, I will begin reading another pastoral Epistle of Paul — the Epistle to Titus.

Reading has continued to be slow and frequently interrupted through the months of July and the first two weeks of August. In the New Testament, I finished reading the Second Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians followed by the entire Epistles to the Galatians and to the Ephesians. In the Old Testament I have covered the first thirteen chapters of the Book of Joshua.
