This document has my short descriptions of sets of verses (often more than one paragraph of the NT) This document was made after I typed a sort-of paraphrase of verses, and added explanatory notes. This document should, in no way, replace your own reading of the Bible. You should read the Bible to get more of the original meaning and to get context.
Some of the Bible studies I create are posted on www.gpclements.com .
