Chronological Bible Reading Plan
Read the whole King James Bible in the order the events actually happened — from Job and the patriarchs, through Israel's kings and prophets, into the life of Christ and the early Church. Every day below links straight to its opening chapter so you can start reading in one click.
Quick Answer
A chronological Bible reading plan reorders Scripture into the sequence events happened instead of the canonical book order. This 365-day KJV plan opens in Job, moves through Genesis and the Exodus, places each Psalm beside the reign that produced it, reads the prophets inside the histories of Kings and Chronicles, blends the four Gospels into one account of Christ's life, and closes with Acts, the epistles, and Revelation — about three to four chapters a day.
"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness." — 2 Timothy 3:16 (KJV)
12–15 minutes a day
Roughly 3–4 chapters daily, about 23 chapters each week.
Timeline order
Psalms sit beside David's reign; the prophets sit inside the histories.
Start any day
Days are numbered 1–365, not dated — begin whenever you like.
Track your reading
Tick off each day as you finish it — your progress is saved in this browser, with no account needed, so you can come back and pick up exactly where you left off.
How the chronological order works
Most one-year plans read the Bible front to back, which splits the story apart: the prophets arrive hundreds of pages after the kings they preached to, and the Psalms sit in one block instead of beside the events that produced them. A chronological plan fixes that by following the timeline.
Weeks 1–7 cover Job and Genesis. Weeks 8–13 carry you through the Exodus, the Law, and the wilderness. Weeks 14–27 follow the conquest, the judges, and the united kingdom with the Psalms folded in. Weeks 28–40 track the divided kingdom, the exile, and the return, with Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and the minor prophets placed where they belong. Weeks 41–45 give you the life of Christ, and weeks 46–52 close with Acts, the letters, and Revelation.
