If someone were reading the Bible out loud, they would say: “Genesis, one, one to three.” I...

The example above references the book of Psalms, the 119th chapter, and both verse 9 and verse 11 in that same chapter.

Gen. 35:1-36:43 This would be read: “Genesis Chapter 35, verse 1 to Chapter 36, verse 43.” This Genesis reference starts at chapter 35, verse 1 and goes all the way to the next chapter, Chapter 36, verse 43. It basically means the entire two chapters: Genesis 35 and 36. It can also be referenced with just the chapters: Gen. 35-36

Blessed be the God and Father of our...
Meaning of Psalm 23. 1. The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. Only a shepherd could write Psalm 23, and David was a shepherd.
