How the readings are paced
Readings follow book order and keep every chapter whole. Word balancing aims for similar amounts of text per session; chapter balancing gives similar chapter counts. A long chapter can still make one day heavier. If you choose more sessions than chapters, the remaining sessions are labelled review days.
The starting speed of 200 words per minute is an editable planning assumption. Minutes are estimates from the speed you enter; study, reflection and looking up unfamiliar words take additional time.
The book set is the 66-book Protestant canon. KJV, ASV and WEB refer to the named eBible editions; their wording and verse divisions differ. For all chapter counts and the counting method, see Bible statistics and chapter data. Use the passage-study worksheet to retain your questions as you read.
