verse by verse
Line after line
Verse by verse describes examining or presenting something one verse at a time, moving through a text sequentially rather than thematically or selectively.
Most common in religious contexts—a verse-by-verse Bible study works through scripture passage by passage: The pastor preached verse by verse through Romans.
The approach emphasizes thoroughness and close attention to each unit of text.
