WHERE DID THE BIBLE COME FROM?

"The bible is a book about hope,forgiveness,redemption and restoration,it has rightly been proclaimed the greatest book ever written" reads out a line out of a page in one of the many US military Bibles i had come across dubbed

"OPERATION WORSHIP HOLY BIBLE"

For centuries because of the bible scores of people have found life more meaningful while others have turned to it to find answers to life's countless questions.

Unlike the Hollywood manufactured star studded movies of this age whose exhilarating themes need no introduction,the bible begins by telling a  story of how God created the earth and all it's wonders and placed man in their tutelage.

Little known though that the book many helpless,destitute,hopeless and oppressed cling to for a new wave of hope for a seemingly better tomorrow is the fact that the bible was hand written.

The bible which is a collection of 72 books,46 in Old Testament and 27 in New Testament didn't just drop down from heaven one day,nor did it appear suddenly on earth delivered by an angel of God

the Bible was written by people just like you(who is certainly reading from this Blog) and I,with some form of primitive ink and pens probably feathers soaked in dye.

 Those that wrote this book where ordinary people with strength and weakness,

faults,failings,flaws,defects,talents and abilities,virtues and vices and were divinely inspired in a way that has left the world in wonderful amazement.

The bible or biblia in Greek which means the books or library wasn't written  all at once,it is said that about 1500 years  separate the times and moments between the writing of the book of Genesis and the book of Revelation

As a matter of fact just after the death of Moses there existed only five books called the 'Pentateuch' or the first five books(Genesis,Exodus,Leviticus,Numbers and Deuteronomy) and these are by far considered the embryo of the bible.

The bible was originally not written in English,the prominent original language of the Old Testament  being Hebrews and the New Testament Greek

The bible as we have it now was not printed in any language at all until almost 1500years after the birth of Jesus Christ and it's a known fact that after the first fifteen years of Christianity the scriptures were read from a manuscript that probably a catholic monk or friar had laboriously copied unto rolls of parchment or vellum.
 The origin of the Bible is God. It is a historical book that is backed by archeology, and a prophetic book that has lived up to all of its claims thus far. The Bible is God's letter to humanity collected into 72 books written by 40 divinely inspired writers over a period of over 1,500 years. The claim of divine inspiration may seem dramatic (or unrealistic to some), but a careful and honest study of the biblical scriptures will show them to be true,God be with you all you blessed
