No planning! So here I am, at the beginning of this little experiment and we'll just see where it goes. I tend to overthink things so I just decided that I would keep most stories together and just start at the beginning and see where things take me. So don't anyone get upset and tell me that my pieces are in the wrong place. So I am just stringing pieces together where I see fit according to my own thoughts. Or even just after the creation? Is it just really high humidity like a terrarium? It's a conundrum. For instance the first puzzle I ran across is Genesis 2: 6 'But there went up a mist and watered the whole face of the ground.' this seems to happen before Adam and Eve are created maybe during the creation. This is my own view of how maybe the puzzle fits together. As I gather information I apologize for maybe getting things wrong.

As I studied further I began to realize the difficulty of such an undertaking because If I read a scripture once as in Genesis I realized that if I added Moses and Abraham along with it, would I/should I reread it again later? Also if Moses' saw in a vision the story of the Garden of Eden should I read it along with Genesis when the story takes place or, during Exodus when Moses was alive to receive the revelation?Īs I am doing this I am realizing what a puzzle it is to put things together.

Then I looked down at the footnotes to see what to read next and what things might be coming along. So, yesterday I started with Genesis in the Bible verse 1. Okay so 'BIG IDEA.' I decided a bit ago that I would try to read the LDS scriptures chronologically. For a pretty great explanation of LDS scriptures within the context of the much larger Christian and Jewish Canon, check out this article by Katherine Flake:
