The road less traveled

In the Preface of the (LDS) Institute of Religion's Old Testament Student Manual, 1 Kings-Malachi, it says
The twenty-eight chapters in the manual are organized to correspond with the chronology of events in the Old Testament. This organization does not strictly follow the sequence of books as they appear in the Old Testament. It is not possible to adhere exactly to the chronology because several accounts overlap in the time periods they cover, and sometimes several prophets ministered at the same time in different areas. Also, the time of the writing of some books is not known (Job and Proverbs, for example). This manual does, however, basically follow the chronology of the Old Testament.
So, I will continue to take advantage of the journal from readthescriptures.com & continue to ask for new reading assignments, but will finish Old Testament Student Manual, Genesis-2 Samuel, by reading Psalms. I will probably even read Song of Solomon, although it is not considered holy scripture & not covered in the manual.

I won't be able to have Read the Scriptures track me as to percentage of completion.
