Chronological Reading of the Bible - Day 28 - January 28, 2026

This is part of a year-long reading of the Bible chronologically in a harmonized format.- Genesis 24:1-67 Abraham sends his servant to his homeland to find a wife for Isaac from his kindred. The servant prays for a sign, meets Rebekah, and brings her back to marry Isaac.- Luke 5:27-32 Jesus calls tax collector Levi, who immediately follows him. Jesus eats with sinners, saying he came to call sinners to repentance, not the righteous.- Matthew 9:14-17 John's disciples ask why Jesus' followers do not fast. Jesus uses bridegroom, new cloth, and new wine parables to show his new teaching.- Mark 2:18-22 People question why Jesus' disciples do not fast. Jesus replies with bridegroom joy and parables of new cloth and new wine.- Luke 5:33-39 Critics note Jesus' disciples do not fast like John's and the Pharisees'. Jesus gives bridegroom analogy, new cloth and wine parables, and says some prefer old wine.
