The Bible Timeline Chart

Jeff Cavins timeline is helpful in understanding which stories fit where in time. For instance, the Prophets are in order of length of writings, NOT in chronological order. This is a pricey tool, yes. It’s a high quality printed product and it’s a very useful tool. I’d recommend!

Bought these to go with our Bible in a Year study with Father Mike. They are informative but I probably would not buy again simply because that really could have been included in the Bible. I bought 4 of the Bibles and 4 of the timelines for kids and grandchild. Had boughtJust my humble opinion. I would have spent my money better buying the tabs to designate Bible chapters.

A timely help to use for bible study and background history 👀

The media could not be loaded. It is very well summarized and it is also easy to follow it along the Bible or if you need to check on some dates or understand the timeline of certain events , this is your go to!It was ripped in the corner but It was ok, no information was missing because of that…I recommend it ! Especially if you are starting to read the Bible and if you want to catechize someone

Great reference and I refer to it constantly . After buying the program, I recommended it to our bible classes!

If you've ever wondered the relevance of bible events to the era, this little pamphlet helps put things into perspective. You have who was a world power at the time, which bible events occured at the time, who was king, etc. Unfortunately, the package it came in was a bit too large for the mailbox. In spite of the fact that I have a standing request all packages be left at the door due to an active mailbox thief in the early morning hours, USPS chose to cram it in there when it arrived at 6 a.m. The pamphlet arrived terribly creased. I am taking off stars for that and one star because I think it's overpriced

Very nice detail

In Jeff Cavins' autobiography, he discusses creating this timeline with Scott Hahn, and it appears in some of Scott Hahn's early TV shows such as "Our Father's Plan". In that show, it takes up an entire wall. The latest version unfolds to about three feet, printed in color on both sides. There are other Bible timelines by other companies. Several things are unique about this one.Jeff Cavins made a video series shown on TV called "The Great Adventure", which was geared to this timeline. It also followed his idea, also in his autobiography, that you can follow the story of salvation in the Bible by reading parts of fourteen books, also geared to this timeline. There is also a "Great Adventure" Bible which is also geared to this timeline, and includes the 73 books of the Catholic Bible, seven books of which were removed after the Reformation from some Protestant Bibles.Earlier versions were just called "Bible Timeline". I, for one, am glad to see it now called "The Great Adventure: Your Journey Through the Bible, The Bible Timeline Chart: A Visual Overview of Salvation History". Someone wrote a review saying this is virtually the same as the last edition of the chart, but costs twice as much. Perhaps so. I gave several people copies of the last version as I was so excited about it. But it was puzzling and difficult to figure out. This one has an introduction and explanation of the color key at the beginning.I was very excited when the first version of this chart became available, because I tried to draw my own chart while watching Scott Hahn explain it on his shows, and the shows went too quickly to allow for that. One example of something I learned from this chart is under the "Divided Kingdom" panel, which shows how Israel is torn asunder in 930 B.C. into the Northern Kingdom of the ten "lost" tribes who are carried away to Assyria, and the Southern Kingdom of Judah, which also includes the small tribe of Benjamin. The chart shows where to read about this event in the books of first and second Kings, and also which prophets are speaking to which kingdom.The copyrights on this chart show how it has been continually improved in 2003, 2011, 2015, and this version in 2019. However, either Ascension Press ought to be the seller on Amazon, or Amazon ought to get their stock directly from Ascension Press. Why? Because sellers are charging almost $4 for shipping when this pamphlet can be mailed for a dollar. Also, they charge the same shipping rate for each chart, even on quantity purchases. I'd like to keep a few copies on hand to give as gifts, but the shipping is prohibitive, unless Amazon stocks this chart so it can qualify for free shipping.
