Bibles Article

The word Bible refers to the sacred canonical collection of religious writings of Judaism and Christianity.The Books that are considered canon in the Bible vary depending upon the denomination that publishes it. These variations are a reflection of the range of traditions and councils that have convened on the subject.

The Jewish version of the Bible, the Tanakh, includes the books common to both the Christian and Jewish biblical canons.The Torah is traditionally considered by believers to be God's direct words and thus thought to be the most sacred part. Much of the Jewish religious law is derived from the Torah.

The Christian version of the Bible is often called the Holy Bible, Scriptures, or Word of God. It divides the books of the Bible into two parts: the books of the Old Testament primarily sourced from the Tanakh (with some variations), and the 27 books of the New Testament containing books originally written primarily in Greek.The word Testament means Covenant in relation to the Christian Bible sections Old Testament and New Testament . The word covenant is an English translation of the original Hebrew word for beriyth. In the New Testament the words testament and covenant are interchangeable as synonyms translated from the Greek word for diatheke . For further theological explanation of the New Testament/Covenant and the Old TestamentCovenant see New Covenant . Some versions of the Christian Bible have a separate Apocrypha section for the books not considered canonical by the publisher. The Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Old Testament canons contain books not found in the Tanakh, but that are found in the Greek Septuagint, the oldest of several ancient translations of the Hebrew Bible into Greek.

The Bible, or some portion of it, had been translated into more than 2,300 languages or dialects as of 2003.
