Memorizing Ephesians
Timmy at Provocations and Paintings announces that he’s using the remaining 26 weeks of 2008 to memorize Ephesians. To help, he’s setting up a “memory Moleskine” for himself and providing you the files to help you create your own:
On the left side of the memory moleskine, I am pasting a typed-out version of the text, broken down in the sections of Scripture mentioned above. The font size is 10 point, and I am using the English Standard Version. On the right side of the moleskine, I am dividing the page into two sections: the top half focusing on “review” and the bottom half focusing on “reflection.” Under review, I will mark the number of times I review the passage along with the corresponding dates. Under reflection, I will write notes and observations I glean from dwelling in the text (such as themes, truths, etc.).
Timmy also links to An Approach to the Extended Memorization of Scripture (PDF) by Andrew Davis, which explains one method for memorizing blocks of Scripture and provides the original Ephesians memorization plan that Timmy is adapting.

The ESV has launched the ESV Study Bible Blog. You can visit the link and also check out esv.org for information on the translation itself. I have been using the ESV as my primary Bible translation for 5 years now….
