Anybody interested in a cover-to-cover Bible group read next year?

I've read the Bible from cover to cover only once in my life, and I'd like the opportunity to do it again more meticulously - this time interpreting from a literary perspective. I'm going to dedicate 2017 to reading the Bible and related nonfiction. I will read and post throughout the year regardless of whether anyone joins me, but I'd love it if I had company. If you'd like to join, let me know.

Here's the idea: MIT Open Courseware has an outline for Bible course. I'll follow this basic outline, though, for the sake of completeness, I added sections of the Bible skipped by this course. The nice thing about this course is that it provides some interesting discussion questions. If you want to join you can simply read along with me, or you can go all-out and delve into MIT's course. Also, you can read some sections and not others, or you can read at a different pace. All that is cool! What is not cool is being rude or confrontational - this is meant to be a literary reading of the Bible for people of all beliefs.

Below is an outline of when we'll be covering the material:



I was going to embark upon this journey this year, but the group I was reading it with fell apart before the year began. That's why this year I'm going to do it regardless of whether I have company, but hopefully some of you will join me!

In preparation I purchased a few different translations of the Bible:



For this project, I will focus mainly on the Literary Study Bible, but I'm hoping to have time to compare to the other translations and let you all know which translations are the most moving to me.
