What is the EASIEST Way to Memorize the Bible? (Hint: It’s NOT the Memory Palace Method!)
Today I discuss what I have found to be the easiest bible memory technique and the rationale behind my methods. I have a background in second language acquisition that led me to question how we could put the automatic language-learning machinery God has given every one of us to work for the purpose of memorizing scripture instead of a new language. Learn about the techniques I have developed, and why they work to allow you to memorize scripture without feeling like your brain is working hard at all. If you're looking to start memorizing large chunks of scripture, start here!

    I just want to improve my memory and I found this video. There are many methods such as PAO (person action object), major system, Ben system, etc… The thing is people have doubts and questions. One advice I can give is watching videos about various methods, pick a method and practice. The more you practice the more the doubts disappear.

    Very interesting. Wasn’t initially thing but working and listening. Then I noticed other than the repetition the mnemonic device you were using. Reminded me of one of Josh’s videos about what they were doing with oral teaching for predominantly non-literate persons. Also I already have this Pslam memorized, but I think I’ve now a means to lock it tighter attaching to the visual images that are already called to mind by the text. I can see how I would have the gist of a longer text rapidly especially for narrative passages and for those with strong visual images to have something other than a mind palace with little inherent connection to the text. Thank you. I learn in ways that I’m sure I’m referring to it incorrectly, but spatial and physical organization of the material. I learned as part of that for my job that if I have a blotter or walk calendar that I use regularly I have almost total recall by date and organized for specific clients so that I have a detailed and date-fixed memory that is helpful in working one on one with persons and for testifying in court as much as witnessing to people from Scripture. Digital calendars and methods just don’t do it for me.

      My goodness, there has to be a quicker & better way to memorize it than that! It's only 6 verses long. I'm sure you could memorize one verse a day for 6 days and then a few more days putting them all together for the whole Psalm. Then of course reviewing it each day. Shouldn't take any more that 2 weeks at the most to get it into your long term memory. You can do it Anne, prove me right!

      Hi (sorry I’m signed in from my other channel on this phone!). Because of Copyright issues, I use the WEB (World English Bible) translation. It is similar to NASB in translation theory and seems solid in every book I have read (I have read through all of it using YouVersion). It is free to use without any copyright issues, so it’s what I am able to use for the public!

    Hi, I'm a new subscriber to your channel, and am eager to see how your method works. I'm interested in learning how to use a memory palace, too, but it just seems so complicated. Also, you make a good point about the memory palace, saying that it's work before you even _get_ to the memorizing part of that particular memory method. I'm all about 3x5 cards and the rote method of Bible memorization. I also find writing out the first letter of every word technique very helpful. I'm going to be memorizing the entire chapter of Romans 8 beginning February 1st, and I wanted to ask you: 1. I see that your videos center around Romans 8. Will the techniques in your video help me to understand how to memorize all of Romans 8 for myself? 2. If so, will this same technique help me to memorize _other_ chapters of the Bible? 3. What about whole books? Can a person memorize a whole book of the Bible using this technique? Thanks in advance for your help.

    • @biblememorymasters2291
      @biblememorymasters2291 Před 2 lety

      Hi! I hope the memorizing has gone well for you! I have used this method for Philippians, James, and Psalm 107, and have been able to memorize each of those. I need to do videos for them, though, to have the ability to quickly review them - the biggest issue is just reviewing once in a while once you've memorized, otherwise you WILL forget over time! I just need to be able to afford the editing software again so I can start work more on my channel, Lord willing! I'm so excited to see people interested in the method!

      @@biblememorymasters2291 WOW, I'm trying to begin a church project that combines memory training, Bible memorization, while learning Hebrew. My preferred Hebrew training is ALEPH WITH BETH, check out that channel. The Bible app is a new one BART BIBLE, it's has Hebrew, Greek and English text with audio and it's all public domain. Your videos are great and I would like to have them for the Hebrew, just like your psalm 1 but in Hebrew so while hearing the Hebrew words you have the scene that gives you the gist of what you are hearing. Another thing I would like is to use pictures to teach the words for memorizing a verse, for example, IN THE BEGINNING=BERESHIT with the scene of a bear in a sheet. Hebrew is perfect for this and it's designed to be memorized, it has a foundation of the Three letter roots called SHORESH, these are verbs and are modified in seven ways called BINYAN and you also create nouns from them. The alphabet, if you go back to the proto Hebrew, also called proto Canaanite, all the letters are pictures and the sound is taken from the first letter, Aleph is an ox and has the A sound, Bet is a house and has the B sound, Gimel is a camel and has the G sound, etc. So as you learn the Aleph Bet you are also learning words. NOW, since you're both a Christian and linguist you may be able to take this and run with it further than I can, but this study has also become an apologetic argument that proves the existence of YHVH and the Bible as his word. THE QUESTION became obvious, HOW IN THE WORLD DOES A LANGUAGE OF THREE LETTER ROOTS EVOLVE? I don't think it can, it would have to be created. I can elaborate more but if you would I would like to hear some fresh speculating. Thanks for your work 👍

      @@biblememorymasters2291 I was just listening to Genesis 1 in Hebrew to hear the language and I had a breakthrough! The book of Genesis is also teaching practical vocabulary in order. It starts with the basics numbers, day and night, animals and plants. Chapter 2 and 3 is male and female, good and bad, etc. The Cain and Abel is family vocabulary, that continues to Abraham and then you get travel and friendship, covenant, vocabulary, then up to Joseph is more advanced family vocabulary, then from Joseph it government vocabulary, then in Moses it's legal military and religious vocabulary. Job and ecclesiastes are proverbs are philosophical vocabulary. It's not only in order it's expanding on the nuance of the words by context. The vocabulary total is only about 4000 words compared to English at about 10000. The Bible is the best story learning system. That would be my complaint with ALEPH WITH BETH, that it does teach the language but it doesn't teach the Bible story.

  • @breese50
    @breese50 Před 2 lety

    Super interesting take on memorization! I attempted memorizing Romans 1 using the mind palace based on a house I used to live in, and found that I could easily remember Keanu Reeves as John Wick grabbing a spear and stabbing the Lock Ness monster outside of the guest bathroom, but I couldn't for the life of me remember what the verse actually was! Lol. I agree that mind palaces are a great way to regurgitate the sounds of the words, but I don't think it writes the Word on our hearts. Working backwards is interesting, but I ironically the method I'm using now makes it easier to forget the beginning not the end. Let me explain. The method is to write out in a little notebook the passage a few verses at a time as a single thought (my invention, not what was taught to me) as a way to keep the ideas tied together. Then I would work on memorizing that portion of verses. Once I could recite it aloud once from memory with 95+% accuracy I would move on to the next passage. While I was memorizing the end of Ephesians 1, occassionally I would skim through the first half of Ephesians 1 to keep it fresh. The idea is try to learn an entire chapter in a week or two only reviewing what you need to not to totally lose it, then once you have the ENTIRE chapter down, recite it aloud each day for 30 days. The drawback I've found is that while I just finished memorizing Ephesians 4, my Ephesians 1 is getting a bit rusty, so I added in a voice recording of me reading the entire book (stopping once I hit where I have memorized up to). I love your idea of using imagery to summarize the major idea of a verse, but I have found grouping the verses into small paragraphs helps link together the entire theme. Visually, I often think about the placement of the verse on the page of my little booklet, as I can usually remember when I'm at the top or bottom of a page, or when I go to a new page. It's totally arbitrary but it does help. That gives me "anchors" so that if I'm trying to recite a passage and forget a half of a verse, I can "fast forward" to my next anchor, which is either the beginning of a new page or more likely the beginning of a new thought. Since I am choosing to only memorize Scripture from specific manuscripts (not modern versions) I sadly can't use your videos :( Do you think there's an alternate low-tech way to do something similar to what you do without having to use the WEB version or CZcams at all? Ideally I want it to be so easy I can just pull the booklet out of my back pocket and review/memorize.

    • @RareEarthGardenDesign
      @RareEarthGardenDesign Před 2 lety

      So sorry you can’t use the videos! I understand though, if you want a specific version. I found success with the backwards buildup just reading the chapter over and over at bedtime to my kids, up to the verse I was learning, repeating that verse multiple times, and reviewing the rest by memory to finish out the chapter nightly. That worked well, but not as well as having the visual cues and many more repetitions, as I have via the videos now! If I had more time, I would go back and do these in the KJV, as I believe it’s not copyrighted and I know many memorizers like to use it! Someday…(if anyone wants this, let me know…)

      Hi I’m just reading your comments and question about pictures without using the internet. I’ve been memorising Revelation and because it’s a very visual book anyway I decided to make up a book of my own. I’ve been sketching a picture that illustrated something in each verse. I’m not an artist by a very long short I just use simple pics that make sense to me. On the back of the page I do first letters for that verse. I have found this helpful. Not sure if this idea would help you. Just thought I’d mention it anyway.
