Funny to see we published the same kind of charts on the same day.

I really like this kind of representation, because we can immediately find some important parts of the book concerned. What is interesting is to use this kind of charts with the list of the chapters, books or anything else, to put them in relation and understand.

Well done!

How big would Psalm 119 be

Level 74

Nov 9, 2021

Psalm 119 has 176 verses, so that would have it about 4 or 5 times higher than most of these points and nearly double chapter 3 of Daniel.
