Chronological Bible Reading 1 Chronicles 1-2

22 April 2020, Chronological Bible Reading, 1 Chronicles 1-2

My wife, Lori, and I are reading through the Bible in chronological order, which is the order in which the events happened. Her blog on this can be found here. This is not intended to be a lesson or a sermon. It is my thoughts and notes as I read through the text and as I sometimes look things up. Today we read 1 Chronicles 1-2.
