I started this a while back. With the King James Version. I would have reached the middle of the book, had I have more discipline.
Nevertheless, I shan't give up.
I'm at chapter 8 thus far.
So, this is the best way to do it:
- As a general rule, memorize a chapter a week. In order.
- A chapter is completely memorized only when I could recite it without much thought - as if my mouth have memorized it.
- When 7 chapters are completed, re-memorize in the following week, each of the 7 chapters per day, in order; while attempting to memorize a new chapter that same whole week. (So for example, if I have just finished chapter 14, I shall recite chapter 8 on the following Monday, chapter 9 on Tuesday, and so on, while beginning to memorize chapter 15 that same week).
- Occasionally, I must visit older chapters for retention.
