I\u2019ve wondered for a while just how much of the Hebrew Bible (Tanach) I\u2019ve read until now. I\u2019ve started reading programs in the past and read through, perhaps, Leviticus before running out of steam. K\u2019ilu, I\u2019m sure that I\u2019ve read all of the Bible in English several times, but there are definitely parts of the Hebrew text that I\u2019ve never gotten to.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, I created a tracker on Excel that I use while reading the Hebrew Bible. Afterwards, I uploaded it to Google Driver and formatted it to match their style. Below is a picture of how it looks for me, with Sefaria on the right and the tracker on the left.<\/p>\n

\"Setup<\/a><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re interested in reading the Bible with this tracker, you can save a copy<\/a> of your own to Google Drive and begin reading the Hebrew Bible at your pace.<\/p>\n

I hope to finish the whole Tanach in 2026. As you can see, I\u2019ve already gotten a good start (21.5% of the chapters in the Bible are done by this point).<\/p>\n

Happy reading!<\/p>\n
