I'm dying to know how the author of that article would substantiate this sort of claim:

Quote:
The Old Testament began to be put into sections before the Babylonian Captivity (586 BC) with the five books of Moses being put into a 154-section reading program to be used in a three-year cycle. Later (before 536 BC) the Law was put into 54 sections and 669 sub-divisions for reading.
But you are right, generally the article is pretty good.
