"There is an old Proverb that says,
'Thoughts disentangle themselves when passing
over the lips and through the finger tips.'
The 17:18 Series which encourages us to actually write out the words of Scripture will be a tremendous tool in putting that proverb into action in our daily lives.
I am happy to commend this project."
- Jerry Bridges
Author of The Pursuit of Holiness
The idea for this comes from Deuteronomy 17:18, where God commands the kings of Israel to hand-write their own copy of the Torah, or book of the law. The purpose of this was so that they would carry it with them always, read it, learn from it, and lead the people accordingly. It's interesting to note that 3400 years later, educators have been discovering that most people learn kinesthetically, by doing or writing things out for themselves.
As you open the book, you will see chapter and verse numbers on the right-hand pages. These are conveniently spaced according to the length of each verse. However, these pre-formatted lines are left blank for you to hand-write your Journible™ book of yourself.
From these two ideas together then, comes the conception of this series of books: The 17:18 Series. As you look at the left-hand pages, the lines are left blank for personal notes and comments on the text. There are also some questions scattered in light print throughoutthese pages. These questions are meant to guide you in thought as you study the books of The Bible and to help you understand the types of questions you should be asking of the text.
Proverbs, Romans, John, Luke, Psalms
Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1st & 2nd Thessalonians
1st & 2nd Timothy, Titus, Philemon, Hebrews
James, 1st & 2nd Peter, 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John, Jude
Journibles will help you engage the text in a deeper, more thoughtful way allowing better retention of the truths found in Gods Word. Your study time will be deeper and more meaningful as a result of taking the time to copy The Word.
They provide a legacy to pass on from one generation to the next. The overarching theme of Deuteronomy 6 and other passages is for the older generations to pass on the wisdom of the scriptures to the younger generations.
