Have you? In 35 years I have not. I've only bits and pieces.
Some of us use it as a guide for our lives, but how many of us have actually read the ENTIRE Bible?
I look at it like this, we would never buy a book and only read bits and pieces of it so why don't more people read the Bible from cover to cover?

Yes I have. My goal is to try to read it at least once a year, but this year I have not done so. I find that a good concordance is especially helpful to me as well as writing down certain instances and family trees just to keep on track. Each time I read the Bible I have more and more questions that lead me in different avenues of research. www.nbufront.org/html/MastersMuseums/DocBen/BibleChrono.htmlI like researching for the truth. And because of Constantine and the Council of Tents when they removed over half of the inspired scrolls, I try to read as much of them also. The first Bible was written on Papyrus, The first language written and spoken was cuineform. The first writings on Papyrus was done by an African Woman.

Yes I have read the entire Bible. If you look in the back of a some bibles you will find that they have break it down for you to read in a year by reading so many scriptures a day.
Its good to read the Bible daily because you see things you may have missed before.

I have lost count of how many times, I am a voracious reader, The first time I read the entire Bible I was a teenager, I read it in a month.
