LABELING GROUPS OF SUBJECTS IN YOUR BIBLE

This involves beginning at Mt 1:1 and reading to determine what verses to group together. For example, Mt 1:1 to 1:17 might be labeled “The Genealogy of Jesus Christ.” Mt 1:18 to 1:25 might be labeled, “The Birth of Jesus,” and Mt 2:1 to 2:12 might be labeled, “The Wise Men.” In the Revelation, the following titles might be used, Rev 1:1 and Rev 1:2, “Introduction to the Revelation of Jesus Christ,” verse 3, “Blessed Is He That Hears and Keeps These Things,” and verses 4 to 8, “Grace to the Seven Churches.”
Once you have done the entire New Testament this way in your Bible, then go on the Old Testament. As you do such studies, your wisdom and knowledge should continue to grow. As each group of verses are labeled in your Bible, you may want to separate them with a colored pencil line.
