(In case you were wondering, the 10 bible books I would choose on a deserted island are Genesis, Exodus, Psalms, Isaiah, Matthew, John, Acts, Romans, Ephesians, and Revelation.)I've tabulated the results of the 9 folks (including me) who responded to this question. Below are the number of people - with 9 being the maximum - who selected each book:
Genesis - 8
Exodus - 7
Leviticus - 1
Ruth - 1
I Samuel - 1
II Samuel - 1
Esther - 1
Job - 3
Psalms - 9
Proverbs - 5
Ecclesiastes - 1
Isaiah - 4
Daniel - 1
Jonah - 1
Matthew - 7
Mark - 1
Luke - 1
John - 8
Acts - 3
Romans - 6
Galatians - 1
Ephesians - 6
Philippians - 2
Colossians - 2
I Timothy - 1
II Timothy - 1
Hebrews - 1
James - 2
I John - 1
Revelation - 3
Psalms is the winner, with Genesis and John coming in a close second. I'm somewhat surprised that Isaiah and Romans did not get higher scores.
Thank God we don't have to ever really be confronted with this difficult and uncomfortable question.
