I had wondered why some conservatives favored the earlier date, but your comment here does make sense.<BR/><BR/>A few years ago, we did a project where I preached through the whole Bible chronologically. In the OT we covered about 25 chapters a week in 9 months, in the NT we did about 8 chapters a week in 8 months.<BR/><BR/>With Joel, in my preparation for the study (chronological Bible reading schedule), I had overlooked it and didn't notice until after we had already passed the early date in our reading and preaching... So I plugged it into the middle date, prior to Babylon, but with some misgivings.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, these subjects are fascinating to me and I am always tinkering with my timeline. I have continued using the chronological schedule for my own reading and am still finding places to tweak it here and there.<BR/><BR/>Maranatha!<BR/>Don Johnson<BR/>Jer 33.3Don Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03332212749734904541noreply@blogger.com
