Hello, everyone.

I’m interested in praying the Scriptural rosary. How did the practice start? Is there a set system of verses, or is it just whatever you choose to go with that mystery? (I’ve nosed around online, and there seem to be different versions–not just translations).

Thanks.
 
According to one of my books, the scriptural rosary was used around 1425-1525. It is a set selection of verses, which make it easy to start using right away.
I have a couple of scriptural rosary books. ‘Scriptural Rosary’ (isbn 0911346163) is a nice little book that fits in a pocket or a purse. It uses the Jerusalem Bible translation and is the easiest to use. ‘The New Rosary in Scripture’, by Edward Sri is a much more detail book, it has detailed questions about Mary and the rosary, detailed reflection on each of the mysteries. It uses the Revised Standard Version as its Bible translation.
If you have a Catholic Bookstore near you, check them out.

Dear CalCatholic,I have “The New Rosary in Scripture” by Edward Sri, I find it most excellent, and is a very good recommendation for our friend:)Peace, Carlan
 
You can get a little booklet at just about any Catholic store. I have crossplace.com/?p=357. It cost only a few dollars.

The one at the link above uses the Good News Translation and so I’m goint to rewrite it using something better.
