How to read a Bible

The Bible is the Jewish book of the Tanakh.  Torah, Prophets and Writings.
This is not to be confused with a Christian bible.
The Jewish Bible is a work of art.  Read it.  Read anything you can and enjoy. 
It is not easy to find the time in your mind and being to pick up a lengthy book and know where to start, know what to read or remember the details of what you have just read either as the Bible is very troublesome to digest in its first glance.
It is not supposed to be an easy meal.  Its God's words.  Not the words of any wayward being.
So that said, Be good and read it.  Pick the Bible up and read it. (notice that when I say Bible in the Jewish sense, I capitalize the word.  The Christian bible is not the same.)
I must say I was given a Bible in my youth at age 16. I never read it at all.  I knew it was a good book.  I knew I would cherish its addition to my life.  But I really never saw myself reading the small print in the JPS (Jewish Publication Society) Tanakh.  I loved that my name was on the cover and it was embossed in Grey and Gold on a Black leather cover.  That said, I never opened my Bible until I was in my late twenties.
I never read it a day when I was an employee in the service of God as a Doctor.  I never read it in school though I had it for the presence of my Jewish life.
So read it.
But how dear Doctor does a small person who has no biblical knowledge yet grasp this entire volume and consume interest in God's word at the earliest of ages and before one has a seat at the life of trust in God?
To read the bible, one need only open the Book ANYWHERE.  Read one or two chapters.  They take about three or four minutes each.  Read the words and don't worry about the details of the story (yet).  Then open it to another chapter and read more.
I was given the Bible and that was a blessing.  Sadly I was never given permission to really open it and learn.  I would expect that if you give someone a Bible, you must also give them a Reading Assignment.  Tell them to read say Judges 6.  Say Proverbs 11.  Anything.  Just read it and begin a lifetime of love for the True Words that came from the eloquent speech of a Human Being's True God of the Universe. 
And that's what a nearly forty year old physician can share with the Jewish population of tomorrow.  Thanks.
