Genesis to Revelation – Learning and Teaching

It’s been 66 weeks, and 462 blog posts in Spanish. And I finally finished yesterday.

With a desire to learn more about each book of the Bible, I started to write brief notes about each book of the Bible on my Spanish blog – En la Biblia. On Sundays, “Measurements” – the length and genre and some details about each book. On Mondays, “History” – where the book fits in history, dates of writing, etc. On Tuesdays, “Author” – or, of course, authors in some cases.

Wednesdays, the “Key” – one key word for each book (thanks to my Dad), and an explanation. Thursdays, “Characters” – key people in the book. On Fridays, “The Christ” – where do we see Him in the book? (Answer: all over the place!)

Finally, every Saturday, “Meditations” – key verses and passages to meditate on or memorize.

So I hope I’ve learned something. And maybe a few other people have too!

So today I started a brand new brief daily post – proverbs in the Bible! A new proverb every day with a brief note. So I’m looking forward to meditating on various proverbs for the next 365 days.

The logo I’m using says: Proverbs: The ancient art of real life (“real” actually has a double meaning – it can also mean royal.)

When I’m done that (if I finish!) I’ll actually have 3 daily projects – The Believer’s Daily Treasure, The One Year Catechism, and the Proverb of the Day, plus the Bible book summaries that don’t exactly fit in a year but I might try to cram them in somehow. That way I’ll have various paths people can take to do a daily Bible meditation. They’re generally very short – in many cases you could read them in less than five minutes.

Just a little something I work on to learn both about the Bible and about Spanish! Here’s hoping I’ll retain something.
