There is a place on the web and on TV called the Shepherds Chapel. And Pastor Arnold Murray and his son are pretty darn good at knowing where and what a certain verse says. Or pertains to. I watch him quite a bit. He reads the Bible just like it is. He isn't one of those money mongers and does not preach or beg or do some stupid fancy crap for money.
He really is worth a peeky-poo!
But.......there is word that there are some parts of the original Bible that didn't get put in. I dunno.
There are soooo many things that are going around now. And I'm sure that there will always be 'something' to be a controversy doing with the Bible.
Anyway....Arnold Murray and his son(s), really know the Bible. Word for word, verse by verse.
Check the Shepherds Chapel out.

Not the whole Bible. It's just too big.
I've known people who memorized large sections of it. Say, ten different books or so. But to memorize the entire Bible would be quite an ordeal.

I met a girl who was raised by her 2 religiously-psychotic aunties. And they filled her mind with ALL things religion. They required her to copy pages out of the Bible every day of her life. She says she had handcopied the entire KJV Bible over 7 Times since she was a child.
In talking with her, she can quote verses, recall stories and doctrines that I would have to seriously take time to search out. I think she just about has it memorized.
And because of the 'religious abuse'....she is a little off-her-nut. Poor gal.

Yes, his name is Pastor Lonus, from Michigan. He has been a very huge blessing to my study of the bible and its original words and meanings at the time of being written.
He can read aramaic, and yes, even he, being human and all does not have all the answers to all my questions.
It is the living word of GOD and only revealed to us in his timing and his way, but there is good news, all will be revealed, its just a matter of patience.

Joakim_L,
Bill Gothard memorized the entire King James, and last I heard, he had started on another translation.
God bless.
