OT Hebrew Reading List - Part Dux

Hilarious 
Several months ago I was home sick and figured out what books of the Hebrew OT have the most unique vocabulary (not just hapax legomenon) in the OT Canon. I posted my findings and to my surprise I was not the only one thinking about this problem!

As I keep thinking through the easiest way to help others grow in their understanding of scripture, new(er) Hebrew readers can really benefit by staring with simple words and working towards rarer and rarer words as fluency increases (There's a reason the Cat in the Hat series is so popular.)

Links to a quick draft of a Hebrew Bible Reading Plan can be found here (pdf) and here (xlsx), let me know how we can improve it! I think a good addition might be a weighted assessment of genre difficulty and incorporating that into this list but that might have to wait for another sick day.

Happy Reading!
