I noticed that some previous reviewers had made statements that this chronological bible "pushed" the gap theory (old world creation, millions of years going by during Creation week). I double-checked the introduction to the copy I am currently holding in my lap and found what I consider to be the source of this- there were multiple editions of the Reese Chronological Bible published. The one I'm holding has an ISBN number of 0-87123-115-8 and had a copyright of 1977. The introduction states: "A number of changes and corrections have been made since the first edition was published. Suggestions or comments will be considered in future printings." The following page, titled, "A Final Word About the Dating" states "The beginning of time has always been highly debatable in the scholarly world. Advocates of the "Gap Theory" allow for millions of years between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2. This view has been advocated by such scholars as Harry Rimmer, C.I. Scofield, and M. R. DeHann. In recent years the thinking of many has shifted to the position that Gensis 1:1 and 1:2 have no gap between them and that the earth is not millions of years old, but actually of recent vintage- God creating a mature world, just as He created mature man and animals. ... May the dates and titles be kept in proper perspective. They are only aids. This Bible would be of great value without them. Only the Scriptures themselves are really important and inspired." Also, there is a general index in the beginning which outlines the contents, and in the back there is an index in traditional Bible order telling you the page number of every chapter in this Bible, so you can always find out what you're reading or track down a passage you want to look up. If you are on the fence about whether or not to get this Bible, make sure you're getting the most recent edition and you will NOT regret it!!!

As a Theology & World History instructor, this is an excellent tool in any research arsenal that I recommend to students. Understanding prophecy, for example, the way Rome canonized things, does not logically coincide with the historical timeline. Laying out the prophets on the timeline of history makes it more obvious to whom the prophet was addressing -- Northern Kingdom? Unified Israel, Southern Kingdom? WHEN is essential with many aspects of biblical understanding, not just prophecies. Like any historical research, however, I consider this only ONE source of information, and do not take it as "gospel" without confirmation from "two or more witnesses." (More is merrier.)
It has several downsides. First, I would not have named it for the false god Chronos. ("Sequential" would have been more biblically appropriate.) Second, calling it a KJV is a misnomer. To be a true KJV it would need the (currently missing) 14 intertestamental books placed appropriately on the timeline as well, as the "authorized" KJV (as did ALL bibles in that time) contained Esdras through II Macabees. With those missing, much of the timeline is also missing, and is therefore incomplete. It lacks a table of contents. (As other reviewers have noted, finding things is near impossible.)
It's an arrow in the quiver for the biblical historian & serious student however. Just take it all with a grain of salt as prescribed.

My first disappointment was when I saw that Job was placed prior to Abraham, as if Job lived prior to Abraham. But we know that one of his friends was a Temanite who were descendants of Esau.
Then I noticed that reasons for books, chapters, or verses placed where they were was somewhat arbitrary. Some were placed by chronology of when it happened, where others by when it was written. This inconsistency was a definite disappointment.
On a positive note, places where verses or chapters were similar, like some Psalms, and 2 Sam vs. 1 Chron for example was helpful to see how they compared and the differences were readily seen.
One additional item noted was that his initial claim was that he used the chronology of Klassen, but I noted some places where he differed in chronology, and no source was cited where he got the information.

The Reese Chronological Bible KJV is advertised as a Bible that places Scripture in the order that it was written with no added commentary. This is not true. The book begins with commentary by Mr. Reese, stating that he believes in an older creation theory (which is another way of saying he supports the gap theory). The gap theory alleges that there was another world at one time that Satan destroyed, so God created a second world. This is not true because there is no Scriptural record of another world.
I was dismayed that Tim LaHaye endorsed this book, because he typically supports the work of ICR, which states that creation happened exactly as Scripture says it did - 6 days, with no other world floating around previously.
It's also important to note that verses are taken from books and placed in the order that Mr. Reese believes they happened. This means that there is a great deal of subjectivity in how verses are arranged.
Frankly, I would not play around with any author's work like this, and more importantly, I would be afraid to play around with God's Words this way.
I have returned this book and am awaiting a full refund.

pulls from EVERY book in the bible to put events in order. expected from a chronological bible but the way it's done makes for very interesting reading. you're readin' from different books and authors at the same time on the same pages. the only drawback would be tryin' to use it in church or bible study because lookin' up individual books and verses is nearly impossible due to the text bein' scattered all over the book! other than that it's great! ....and it's an awesome addition to my bible collection.

I really enjoy the specific style of how this Holy Bible is composed. Its flow is not designed to trace the course of when, it was penned by man in the measure of time, but rather penned, in the measure of events happening against the backdrop or Eternity.
This truly sets it apart from other Chronological Holy Bibles like the one produced by Thomas Nelson entitled Chronological Study Bible that traces events as measured and penned in the frame work of Time.
Reeses Chronological Holy Bible is a Great Asset to any serious Bible Student.

I think sometimes we listen to everybody else preaching the Word and not diving into it on our own.
This has enabled me to be a better Berean.
I see the trials of David and where he wrote some of the Psalms.
A better idea of ages (Abraham & Isaac).
The parallel kingdoms understood a little better.
Small details of stories you grew up with that you never knew or never saw
More than anything a hunger for the Word of God!

I have read the Bible through many times. The past few years I decided to use different ways to read the Bible through. This past year I purchased The Reese Chronological Bible, KJV and decided that this would be the bible I would use for my read through. What a joyful and enlightening experience! The perspective of chronological order increased my understanding of the scripture. To see the parallel in the divided kingdoms of Israel and Judah, the background of the Psalms and the writing of the New Testament Epistles through out the book of Acts shed new light and knowledge. I have recommended this bible to several and have given it as a gift no less than 4 times. Read it, you will not be disappointed.
