BIBLE READING
Here are the Bible readings for this upcoming week. Feel free to read the entire thing, just the NT, or just the OT:
| Day | Reading |
| Monday | Genesis 1-2; Psalm 19; Mark 1 |
| Tuesday | Gen 3-5; Mark 2 |
| Wednesday | Gen 6-8; Psalm 104; Mark 3 |
| Thursday | Gen 9-11; Mark 4 |
| Friday | Gen 12-15; Psalm 148; Mark 5 |
Genesis was written by Moses and was for the Jews.
· Genesis 1-15 covers Creation, the stories of Adam, Noah, and part of Abraham.
· Genesis 5 – note the ages that these men lived to be, and note the strange event with Enoch. (Fun fact, Methuselah died the year of the flood).
· Genesis 10-11 have genealogies. Again, note the ages. They are significantly less than those in Gen. 5.
Mark was written by Mark (a disciple, but not 1 of the 12) and written to Gentile (non-Jewish) Christians.
· Mark 3:6 – Herodians were Jews who supported the Roman authority (whereas most Jews didn't support the Roman authority).
