Unfortunately, we do not have the videos of all of these "Intro" videos in our Bible.,  We only go up to Joshua.  I look forward to being able to have these in the digital edition soon.

True, but we do have 64 of the 66 “Introduction to” the Bible Book of…videos

These are in available under Library > Videos > The Bible.

Perhaps our digital Study Bible will be updated in February or March 2023 when the complete 66 are available.

Who knows, we may also get a substantial number of study notes added next year to complete the Christian Greek Scriptures.

This will assist us in Examining The Scriptures Daily (and keep to topic).

Hope so too. I believe the The Good News According to Jesus project will help the GB to understand the gospels at a much deeper level. Which could mean a lot of new study notes, if research notes from this project is added to the study Bible.

The think I like is that we are taking it slow. We are getting more out of the Bible reading , we are learning more.

 

In 2016 we went from 2 Chron 29 to Isa 23. In 2023 We are going from 2 Kings 22 to Job 31. For 2018 the brothers decided to take it slow, in that year we went from Matt 1 to Acts 20. Back in 2013 We Went from Matt 1 to Rev 22. Since 2018 we are only doing 2 or 3 Chapters a week, prior to that we were dong 5 or more chapters a week.

On the week of June 26 2023 will we watch the introduction video to EZRA at the hall? Will we watch the intro videos at the hall ever again after the week of march 20 2023?

I can’t be sure of course, but I have a feeling that, yes, we will watch them. Interestingly, the S-38 document specifically has the following direction:

 

*** S-38 pp. 1-2 par. 3 Instructions for Our Christian Life and Ministry Meeting ***
3. Talk: Ten minutes. The theme and an outline of two or three main points are provided in the Life and Ministry Meeting Workbook. This talk is to be assigned to an elder or a qualified ministerial servant. When a new Bible book is scheduled in the weekly Bible reading, a video will be played to introduce it. The speaker may draw parallels between the video and the theme. However, he should be certain to cover the points outlined in the workbook. Also, as time allows, he should utilize the accompanying artwork, which is designed to complement the material to be covered. He may include other reference material as long as it contributes to the development of the points in the outline.
https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=1201038&srctype=wol&srcid=share&par=33

 

So unless the above line is changed, I think it’s safe to assume we will continue using these videos in our meetings.

 

Now what I wonder is if some of these older introductory videos will be updated or be revised. For example, the Ezra video only has two “main points” illustrated on the video thumbnail, rather than three points which have been the case in all other videos.

we started these videos in the first meeting in January of 2018. Just think of all of those who came into God's organization in the last few years since we started these videos.  And young ones who went from toddlers to school age and so on.  It will all be new to them. A half-million or a million, it has been 5 years?

Thank you.  I forgot we started with Ezra in January 2016.  Matthew was in January 2018.  My fault.

So at the end of this year and beginning of next year 2023, it will be 7 years since we started the intro videos.  The new ones might be 1 1/2 million...❤️

Thanks again.
