Verse by Verse is a Christian daily devotional that presents a verse-by-verse exposition of early Genesis that proceeds in strict biblical order, explaining what each passage states, how events progress, and how God’s actions structure history. Benjamin Michael McGreevy moves sequentially from creation to the emergence of Abram, treating Scripture as a continuous record rather than isolated passages. He explains how God brings the universe into existence, establishes time, space, life, and order, then records humanity’s expansion, moral collapse, judgment through the Flood, and preservation through Noah. The devotional then traces how the world is repopulated through Noah’s sons, how nations form through identifiable family lines, and how power, geography, and language develop across generations. Genealogies are handled as chronological records that connect events and locations across the centuries. The work culminates in narrowing human history from many nations to a single family line, ending with Terah’s household and Abram’s emergence, setting the historical groundwork for the covenant that follows in later Scripture.

Verse by Verse by Benjamin Michael McGreevy is an excellent, very accessible way for a reader to intentionally slow down and move through the Bible, one day and one verse at a time. I like that McGreevy breaks the verse down, explains what it means, and follows it with reflection prompts. The writing is straightforward and easy to understand, which, for me, was most important when reading passages that include long family records and unfamiliar names. McGreevy treats the Bible as a trustworthy record of God’s actions in history. It is formatted for daily reading and personal study, but I can see how well the devotional would work in a group study, or as an evening discussion for a family or couple. McGreevy does not rush the reader or talk down to them. Instead, he encourages patience, consistency, and respect for God’s word. For those seeking a better understanding of scripture, this devotional is a strong place to begin.

Verse by Verse: A Daily Devotional Through the Whole Bible by Benjamin McGreevy is an eye-opener for those seeking to understand God and His love for His most important creation, mankind. By delving deep into the scriptures, Benjamin reveals God’s wonderful message as we’ve never seen it before. From the catastrophic Great Flood in Genesis to the famous occurrence at the Tower of Babel, Verse by Verse covers it all. Benjamin reminds us that it is the same God we worship today as the one worshipped in the Bible; never changing and all-powerful, yet always merciful and compassionate. Benjamin uses Noah’s obedience and faith in God as an example of what it means to truly be a Christian, offering his own personal insight, including the struggles he faced in his relationship with God and how he overcame them. Verse by Verse is a life-changer, and I urge readers to invest in this powerful guide.

I learned many interesting things in reading Verse by Verse, and so will all readers. I highly recommend this book; it is truly worth every minute spent reading it.

“From Genesis to Revelation, every word matters.” As BenjaminMcGreevy points out in the Introduction to his book, Verse by Verse, people often study the Bible piecemeal, focusing on the most familiar stories, such as Noah’s Ark and the many stories of Jesus from His birth to His death on the cross. People tend to forget that every story in the Bible matters, since every story is the Word of God. Even Jesus confirmed in Matthew 4:4 that people need more than bread to live; they also need God’s words. Life is a journey, and so is the thorough study of God’s words. One must reflect on the Divine purpose of God’s words throughout the Bible.

I enjoyed Verse by Verse, which should not be rushed. Reading a chapter per day is ideal for maximum effect. In this book, you will go through many verses of the Bible. It is structured to answer the questions: What does the verse teach me? How does it reveal God’s power, faithfulness, and wisdom? What does God ask me to do here? Is there a truth to accept, a promise to claim, or an action to obey? I enjoyed this book because it compelled me to look beyond the verses to understand the broader message of the Bible. I also loved the fact that it provides a lot of questions for reflection and gives readers spaces to use for notes and reflection. Benjamin McGreevy writes with grace, and the tone is confident and compassionate. This book is a gift of faith, the kind you want to share with a loved one.
