    This morning, I finished reading the book of Psalms for the second time this year and for the 90th time in my Christian life!

    What book of the Bible have you read the most times through in your life?

    I have read the Bible through each year, in addition to any more detailed study I may do, for the past 30 years or so.
    But I suppose the books I have studied in most detail are Romans and Ephesians

    I didn't see Leviticus on this list;)

    And I'm surprised that Revelation is not on there too!... They don't read it per say, they dissect it... Brother Glen:)

    I would love to discuss this…

    (“The Spirit and the Bride say, ‘Come.’ And let the one who hears say, ‘Come.’ And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price,” Revelation 22:17).

    I, too, have read the Bible through each year for more than 30 years now. After the Psalms, Revelation is probably the book that I have read the most.

    The book of Revelation is the capstone of inspired, inscripturated, inerrant, and infallible divine revelation to mankind. Revelation therefore surpasses all other books in ways that make it of unique value and importance.

    I would debate Revelations however agree with Glen that it makes for lively debate… however it is so ‘out there’ that I prefer to dialog & study other scripture.

    I once led a Bible study through Revelation and transcribed it on my blog, so I must have spent a lot of time on it. However, I disagree that one part of Scripture 'surpasses all others (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

    You are not understanding correctly what I said. This is what I said: "Revelation therefore surpasses all other books in ways that make it of unique value and importance."

    The rest of the Bible has its full importance, but Revelation surpasses it in ways that are uniquely valuable and important:

    Revelation is the only book of the Bible that explicitly promises that those who read it and keep what is revealed in it will be blessed (Rev. 1:3).

    Revelation uniquely provides seven letters directly from the glorified Christ to Christian churches that instruct us about our churches in ways that none of the rest of the NT does.

    Revelation uniquely provides divine revelation about end-time events that no other book does.

    Revelation uniquely reveals to us much about what heaven and the eternal state will be like that is information that is not found anywhere else in the Bible.

    Etc.

    It's similar to Revelation 6 where the angel tells John to come and look as the first four seals are opened.

    Book I have read most? That's hard to say. Maybe the sermon to the Hebrews. Also, I have read Job. My first experience with deep, deep sorrow came in my mid-teens and Job became an important book for me. Hebrews started out as a letter of questioning my faith and ever fearing I was failing, drifting, or hardened in heart, to a letter that gives great comfort to the children of God because Jesus is so vastly supreme over all things. It is also one of those letters that ties the Old Covenant into the New Covenant.
